wow, visited the puredarwin website for the first time. Very nice  ;).  
That can be a fix for Apple disallowing the use of virtual machines,  
or a cluster with a (large) number of machines. So IMHO MacPorts  
should try to help puredarwin.

BTW: http://www.puredarwin.org/developers/macports/ 
macportsonpuredarwin is about puredarwin and macports!
