Maybe the pkg installer software looks to see if an installation is trying
to mkdir in root and it automatically creates /etc/synthetic.conf with an
entry. That would be quintessential Apple to do something like that. Thank

Hi all,
I haven't installed a fresh MacPorts system in quite some time but will
soon be doing so on a few Macs one running Catalina and the other Big Sur.
