Hmmm ... since I did a
sudo port upgrade outdated
which although it appeared to "skip" several things due to not having  
known in advance to specify --enforce-variants (let alone in the  
correct manner) seems to have upgraded the ports.

So now I have no ports outdated ... and therefore I can't now do
sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants outdated
as there are no outdated ports to upgrade.

So what became of the "skipped" items?

Do they matter?

(this is probably going to be a moot issue as SnowLeopard arrived in  
the post this morning, so it's all going to get a rebuild anyway - but  
not now as it's almost time to go to work)

So when I rebuild everything under 10.6, do I have to specify +darwin  
for lots of ports to avoid this --enforce-variants message in the  
future, or is +darwin now assumed by the ports that need it?
