It has a dependency on one of the linux_base ports. The intend
is to move everything over to linux_base-7, AFAICT. The one
thing that we need to avoid is that if a port does work with
both 6 and 7 and 6 is installed, the port does not try to
install 7 on top of 6 if we make it dependent on 7.

It's probably a good idea to block the ability to install 7
on top of 6 by default and create a knob that puts the user
in the driver's seat with a loaded gun pointing at his feet...

Yes. It's up to David to fill us in about his intentions. There's
no point to continue to be in each other's way. If David has a good
idea and is implementing it then I don't want to step on his toes,
irrespective of whether or not he stepped on my toes.
