I didn't think we typically did that in MacPorts. For one thing, it's not
compatible with Tiger, but I guess we're caring even less about that now that
Lion is out. Are there any existing ports using this strategy?
I don't know, but is the standard Unix way to add new environmental variables on
Unix systems, so I think we should use this and tell people to source all
$prefix/etc/profile.d/*.sh files:
On our Fedora 13 systems:
ls /etc/profile.d/
/etc/profile.d:
ccache.csh lang.csh
