Last but not least, is there any way to get MacPorts to install

running 10.4.11), built a package on one and copied the archive over
to /opt/local/var/macports/packages/darwin/i386/ on the other but
MacPorts ignored the archive and attempted to fetch and build the
package again on the other system. It would be nice if we didn't have
to subject every Scipy user to a bootstrap build of gcc.
That sounds correct...
If you run MacPorts in debugging mode (port -d), you should get
some output telling you what happened to the unarchive phase...
But when you enable portarchivemode=yes, it is supposed to try
"unarchive" (binary) before doing the "destroot" (source build)
