Probably just because Homebrew is newer and not many people use it
(compared to MacPorts).

But the homebrew install works fine at the moment (it installs 4.6.0).
I have even added an option to install Chicken from Git head - not
sure it made upstream. It will require a previous Chicken install, as
it is not aware of any bootstrapping requirements.
