We are trying to get python ports to build and install for multiple python
versions, these concurrent breaks should get resolved as part of the updates to
support flavours. My experience with concurrent so far is that most ports only
need concurrent added, others need some adjustment for manpages and docs.

If concurrent was enabled as a part of defining FLAVOR then
USE_PYTHON=noflavors should also disable concurrent for ports it does break.

Using pkg install with a port origin (or a partial name match) now finds all
available flavours, without concurrent this can lead to install issues that can
frustrate users and lead to a bad user experience that will only contribute to
complaints. I reported this as a separate issue for pkg - bug #224265
