I've tried this several times and never got it working. There are so  
many dependencies that the process seems very fragile. But the biggest  
issue is that even if you succeed, the .app bundle will be useless  
anyway unless you're logged in as root when you run it. You could  
certainly run it from Terminal with sudo, but then there isn't much  
point in having an .app bundle. :)

DarwinPorts is the old name. That's the only difference. When the  
OpenDarwin project shut down, they changed the name and moved to  
Apple's macosforge.org. I think the old website is still around just  
due to inertia.
