FLAVORS allows a pkg repo to contain variations of the same port. For 
example, a port that has two mutually exclusive options can now exist in 
the public repo as both builds (each with their own FLAVOR suffix), 
rather than requiring the port maintainer select a default and force 
users of the other to compile the port themselves, or do things like 
maintain subports.
