 * I just tried to install the ispell port and the first thing it rudely tried to
 * do is go get that behemoth Emacs and install it on my system.  I commented out
 * that dependency and everything worked just peachy keen, so might I ask why it
 * is there?

I believe it needs it to byte-compile an .elc file.  Try "make
package" and see if everything really worked ok.
