No description provided.

This port is just a package of other ports which are needed to be
installed to perform building of other ports from within the system as
the host, without doing cross-compilation.
By creating a port package, it will build that port and all of its
dependencies in the Build/${ARCH}/Packages directory, packing each port
in its own tar.xz file.
This immediately affects the tar utility, as it takes out the actual
implementation of extracting a tar file into a shared library, making
it possible to use it in other places as well when needed.
Although it's not very common to see hard links, we should support these
whenever possible.
