I agree that "poudriere" is over kill for the average user. It's an 
un-needed work horse that just complicates things. The current direction 
is toward always using packages first, and now pkg flavors will address 
many of the reasons previously requiring a port compile, and only as a 
last resort compiling the single port without requiring the complete 
port tree being installed. I see "poudriere"  as a necessary tool for 
the builders of the package system and maybe some side case users. But 
it is not a main stream tool and the handbook should document as such.
