One port can easily depend on another port's variant, but it cannot enforce that variant on another port. (All it can do is give up.) If port A depends on "B +foo" and if +foo is not B's default variant, building A will fail on the buildbot. Even if +foo is B's default variant and the user installs "B -foo", installing A won't work without manually reinstalling "B +foo".
