Just to follow up to myself, by "we" I mean Apple. I'm not clear

Maybe I can convince the guy maintaining Apple's X11 to also
maintain MacPorts' x11, but I make no promises. :-)
The guy seems to be heading the good way :

I'd like to eventually submit these for inclusion in MacPorts to
replace the broken xorg port that currently exists. As it stands, I
wasn't able to figure out how to build more than one module (each of
which needs a separate configure / make / make install step) per
portfile, so I have dozens of dozens of portfiles out there. Building
a replacement for X11.app takes > 200 modules, and I don't really want
to dump that many portfiles into the main collection.
I've looked and looked, but haven't been able to find a clear example
of a port with many configure steps. Can someone point me toward one?
Assuming I can figure it out, we'd probably go with something like
x11/xorg: dummy package with deps on the following
x11/xorg-proto: prototype-header modules
x11/xorg-libs: libraries
x11/xorg-apps: apps
x11/xorg-xserver: X server
x11/xorg-fonts: fonts
x11/xorg-misc: misc utilities like imake, etc -- might be able to
do without this one.
