Comment (by kencu):

 Peter, I can't reproduce your issue on any systems yet 10.7+, and I don't
 as yet understand why you would see this being called in, but the above
 push changes the test to os.major instead of os.version, and I suspect
 that might be it.

 Pls wait a bit for that change to propagate through the ports tree, then
 update your ports tree, and see if you are still getting it.
