It took me a while to understand, but now I get it. I didn't know it
was possible to specify the target in BUILD_DEPENDS. But the problem is
that I would have to create a port for every dependency. Generally
speaking this seems the best approach, but in this case, since this
would be the second common-lisp port, I don't think it would be optimal.

I have overlooked the DISTFILES variable! It looks great, I'll try this
way.
