I'll bite:  the road that you apparently don't want MacPorts to start down
is supporting development, but it occurs to me that one thing hampered by
that is providing new ports, when a debug version of a dependency is needed.

More generally, a build from source system that doesn't support development
seems strange.  Although perhaps I should read this in the context of the
recent appearance of binary packages, with the implication that source
builds are being deemphasized.
