Worse, with gtk2 the x11 and quartz variants aren't binary-compatible;
one installs libgtk-x11 and the other installs libgtk-quartz. Dependent
ports need to link against one or the other, so we're looking at
requiring everything that depends on gtk2 to have -quartz and -x11
subports.

At least, I'm assuming they're really not binary-compatible; I guess
I don't actually know what would happen if we gave the libraries the
same name...
