What is the histor of the name of that small file? Is that rooted in some standard way or is that a MacPorts thing? It makes me laugh a little every time I see it. * Searching google for "port turd" can provide amusing as well.

After the destroot phase, MacPorts goes through the destroot and deletes any empty directories (unless you list the directory in destroot.keepdirs, which causes a small empty file to be placed in the directory so that it's not empty and won't get cleaned up).
