Comment (by jonesc@…):

 Personally, I would say the second of the two options. Have a new port for
 xrootd. The fact it uses the same tarball as root is not an issue (gcc and
 libstdcxx do this for instance). The root port should then be updated with
 a new variant that depends on this new xrootd port, and sets the relevant
 configure options to use it. This has the advantage that xrootd can evolve
 at its own pace (although some degree of coordinate between the two ports
 might be useful), and both ports can be installed with or without the
 other, if required.
