>Description:
Request the default options on the XBMC port include airtunes support.

Without selecting the airtunes option, it is not possible to stream music from an Apple device to XBMC over AirTunes (AirPlay is for video/photos only and does not replace AirTunes).

Note that this bring in an additional dependency: audio/libshairport.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install multimedia/xbmc with default port options, and attempt to stream music to XBMC using AirTunes. it will not work and xbmc will not be listening on TCP port 36666.
>Fix:
Turn on airtunes option as default on multimedia/xbmc port.
