to install the port distribution. it's the slowest part of the install
process. developers may not experience that, but all other
users (who buy the cd) do.

I am primarily concerned with that, and secondly with mainteinance
issues when you have a new/updated port, you generally need to touch
the Makefile and one or more files in pkg, and the info in pkg/* is
often the same comments you would put at the beginning of the makefile.
