For many of the Qt-dependent ports (e.g., qwt, qwt52, etc.), I currently
need to specify which ${qt_dir} to use, e.g.,
"${prefix}/libexec/qt4-mac" or "${prefix}/libexec/qt4-mac-devel" or
"${prefix}/libexec/qt4-x11", which is dependent on the variant selected
by the user (e.g., +qt4, +qt3, +x11, etc

Hi Rainer - Using "global" to change variable scope sounds useful, but
it still isn't working. Here's my code (augmented from the original by
adding in the "global" lines):
{{{

Taking into account that 'if' statements are processed in-order in the
main scope of the Portfile, while variants are processed after
everything else & in their own scope, I converted what I wrote before
into what's below, which it works and, amazingly, really isn't too ugly
even. I don't even nee
