If those binary installers did install headers in /usr/local/include

you install a port that has an optional dependency not installed via
MacPorts but present in /usr/local you'll run into problems sooner or
later.

So let's be a little more specific. You are saying that it's /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib that are the problem, not /usr/local/bin, right? Otherwise you're saying that, for example, MacPorts is incompatible with BBEdit (which puts symlinks in /usr/local/bin). Very few "ordinary" installers install into /usr/local/include or /usr/local/lib, but a number install to /usr/local/bin. I don't see that as a major problem.
