I was not aware of a way to query the registry directly to discover what
variant of a port is installed; it is not part of the public MacPorts API
that's exposed to ports. Therefore, in these ports and everywhere else it has
been necessary, I did the only thing I knew how: test for the existence of a
file known to be installed only by the desired variant. If you know a better
way, let me know.
