You seem to have missed the most important point of my comment:  You CANNOT
prevent that from happening with ANY technique or algorithm. If the port
build/install completes before validation begins, it gets validated tonight=

If validation begins first and locks out the installation of the port while
validation is running, it gets validated tomorrow night.  That's the exact =
same
situation as validating against a snapshot.

"Use poudriere" may (or often may not) be good advice for any given user and
situation, but IT IS NOT A SOLUTION.
