 Replying to [comment:3 mouse07410]:
 > One example: I want the ability to force Macports to use Xcode even when
 CLT is installed,

 I'm trying to understand ''why you want this''. It should not be
 necessary.

 > As you know, some ports have problems with CLT.

 No, I do not know this. The `use_xcode` variable exists so that ports that
 require Xcode can use it. If there are ports that require this to be set
 that haven't set it, individual bug reports should be filed for each of
 those ports.
