It took me a while to understand, but now I get it. I didn't know it was possible to specify the target in BUILD_DEPENDS. But the problem is that I would have to create a port for every dependency. Generally speaking this seems the best approach, but in this case, since this would be the second common-lisp port, I don't think it would be optimal.
