I would find that inconvenient; I never bother doing that. It's fine to let the 
automated buildbot builds find problems and fix them later. It is however a 
common situation that a port requires pkg-config to find a dependency, and that 
if pkg-config is missing the program will silently skip that dependency rather 
than display an error. So if I'm not sure, I do try to remember to deactivate 
pkg-config locally before installing a port, before I commit it.
