[Ifeffit] Regarding installation of demeter on Mac Mavericks system

[Alison Tebo]

Hi Pushkar,
I messed up and said athena is its own port--it's not, Athena, Artemis, and
Hephaestus all go with demeter-devel. Sorry about that! xorg-server and
demeter-devel are two separate ports. Since you're having trouble
installing them, I would highly recommend that you do them separately so
you know which one is broken.  I'm not sure if libgcc is a dependency of
X11 or Demeter, probably Demeter though. Either way, if you get a
truncation of the installation like that, then Athena, Artemis, and
Hephaestus won't work.

Best,
Alison
