Comment (by ryandesign):
There is no particularly good way for you to know in advance whether a
binary is available or will be used. The only way that occurs to me is
that you could check the directory listings on
https://packages.macports.org to see if a file exists for the port name /
version / variants / architecture / OS version you are about to install or
upgrade.
I guess we haven't made this easier to discover because we don't think
there's a reason why you need to know. If you want to install or upgrade a
port, do so, and MacPorts will use the best method available.
If you would like to only use precompiled archives, you can use the `-b`
flag, as in `sudo port -b upgrade`. If no archive is available, MacPorts
will error rather than fall back to building from source. However, some
ports never have archives available due to licensing restrictions.
