well, it looks like it. all ports we rely on seem to have fixed the compiler 
dependecies on their part, so the MacPorts defaults do well now!

is that a matter of quoting all path references internally?

i thought about something like that, too. allthough i would suggest to move 
the binary subport completely into the rkward-devel port, so we have "our" 
portfile and a clean one for MacPorts. the main difference between both 
portfiles at the moment is wheter a specific SVN revision is set or not, that 
should be easy to toggle within the devel portfile. i hope we can avoid to 
maintain three portfiles that way.

i'd go for different subports. i didn't manage to bundle varaints, but that's 
no problem with subports. hm... which reminds me:

if we also want to be able to distribute debug *bundles*, it will have to 
become a subport again.

i'll get to him, you don't have to bother with that.
