That would be a possibility. Then the post-activate message could be
reduced to simply referring the user to the text file.
Or just `cat
The problem is that if you do miss these messages, then you can't
easily resurrect them other than installing the whole lot again.
True-ish. Well really you only need to deactivate and active the port
again, since ports print such messages in the post-activate phase.
But users don't

Sadly, there's no way to figure out how many OS X 10.3 users exist.
This number is probably the most important one to take into account
deciding whether MacPorts should support OS X 10.3 or not.
Assuming Apple supports OSs as long as there're fair amount of users,
this might be a good idea to
support for the newer versions, or
creating an overly-complicated implementation.
