I appreciate your response, and apologize for my somewhat overdramatic 
posting.  I know I have more control via ports, but it's the prebuilt
packages with dependencies that are most troublesome.  I can understand 
libxml2, even, but gtk2?  There should be another class of dependency for
"could use" instead of "must use"...
