Comment (by mascguy):

 > It would still be highly-desirable if one could specify a path, via a
 formal MacPorts config property like build_dir. (Just as we currently
 support ccache_dir.)

 That said, after testing with a RAM disk, I'm a believer! And perhaps
 that's the best approach anyway, eliminating wear-and-tear on my SSD.
