On a side note, should not the return statement be `return -code 1 blah`?
Beats me. This statement is not documented in "man portfile" or in the guide at http://geeklair.net/new_macports_guide
This is a standard TCL procedure, see return(n).
I'm not familiar with standard TCL procedures, and I'd estimate most port authors aren't. We just know enough to get by to write portfiles. I for one would certainly appreciate it if everything necessary to write portfiles, including standard TCL, were documented in the guide and/or the manpage.
