Install MacPorts version of LaTeXML but MacTeX's TeXLive not MacPorts'?

I don't know whether that works with the LaTeXML port specifically but it looks like it might.

Usually this works with ports for ports that just invoke TeX at 
runtime, but not those that need to install style files, as those are
installed only for a MacPorts texlive installation. (It also doesn't
work for ports that need to link against libraries from texlive, though
those are less common).

The LaTeXML portfile is written to allow a MacTeX installation to
satisfy the dependency, but it also appears to texmf files. I don't
know if this will work correctly for MacTeX users. (I'm not familiar
with LaTeXML).
