I agree with Eitan.  I don't see a reason why texlive shouldn't make it 
into the mainstream ports.  What you need is to work with someone with a 
ports commit bit, and who is willing to take some responsibility to 
perform updates in a timely manner (because submitting PR's can take 
quite a while).  Eitan has a ports commit bit, as do I.  Since Eitan 
asked first, he gets first dibs, but I am willing to play that role as well.
