You are correct that there are too many variations, not to mention my patch failed to handle the case where a port is installed as an EXTRACT_DEPENDS. That is part of the reason that the PR is in limbo - it clearly needs more work. I would love to find time to clean it up because I still think the feature is useful. Thanks for the hint on using +DISPLAY for this. If I can ever find the time to re-work the patch I will certainly explore that option.
Personally, I'd love to see files/pkg-message.in as the 1 true only way. But pav already veto'ed that, so moving on.
I did think of another reason why the particular patch doug asked about is still good. Separation of Languages. It removes the 'text' from the 'Makefile'.
