Comment (by RJVB):

 Replying to [comment:9 jmroot]:
 > The Portfile is setting `startupitem.install yes`, overriding what the
 user set in macports.conf. So multiple installations of the port in
 different prefixes will always conflict.

 Is there a way to determine if the default for that setting has been
 changed by the user?

 I'll admit that I didn't consider specific use cases like this but I do
 think that they shouldn't make things more complicated for the average J.
 User. Dev-teams using MacPorts to build their projects by definition have
 the know-how and means to take additional steps that Joe and Jane don't
 have...

 The easy way out would be to provide a build variant that disables the
 auto-loading.
