Hi Josh,
     In what way did that post refer to the 3.7 packages being out of
date?  Was this used in relation an upgrade from one release to
another?  If you are doing a fresh install, the packages are most
likely the way to go; that is unless you have specific modifications
you want to make to how a package is compiled then port is there for
you.
