How challenging would it be to have "port contents" work on "installed" rather 
then "active"?

Example:
$ port installed help2man
The following ports are currently installed:
  help2man @1.38.4_0
  help2man @1.39.2_0 (active)
pillbox:pixilla brad$ 

$ port contents help2man@1.38.4_0

I'm trying to track down an issue where a dependency has been upgraded and a 
library path has changed. So I wrote a script to run otool on all the contents 
of a port and verify that paths exist. Well, I have the new software 
deactivated because it's broke so I would still like to use "port contents 
<port name>@<version>_<revision><+variants>".

In the mean time I'll glob the dir at $prefix/var/software/<port 
name>/<version>...

Bradley Giesbrecht (pixilla)
