All of Xcode? Doesn't that block access to the SDKs too, and is that going to 
require the use of a compiler installed through MacPorts?

I can see the use for not requiring the (obscenely huge) Xcode for the average 
MacPorts user, but why would those of us who need Xcode anyway be obliged to 
install another compiler for the probable majority of ports that build just 
fine with Apple's compiler? (Not to speak of the fact that last time I tried, 
the binary-shipped clang-mp-3.5 was still roughly 2x slower than Apple's 
version...)
