portmaster is fine when you build on a clean system - no old packages
installed, etc. But when you remove all packages every time you update your
ports, you'd be better of by using poudriere anyways.
With the complexity of today's software and build systems (scripts generating
input for other scripts generating Makefiles - don't get me started, but then I
wouldn't want for developers doing that with raw shell scripts, that didn't
work either), building in not-that-well-defined evironments will give
not-so-well-defined results.
