I gave you suggestions on how to work around these (properties|features|limitations|rules|whatever) of the ports tree. I would be more interested to hear if you found those useful or not.
Distributing the dependencies as an additional tarball via the FreeBSD commiters local distfiles feature is a possible workaround to the problem. If I want to go that way... I haven't decided yet. It would shift the responsability for those to me (as a maintainer), or to us (as a project), compared to having the dependencies as separate ports (as a maintainer I would at least get the benefit of portscout/repology/freshports mails) or bundled by the author of the software I want to port.
