I want to build coreutils
from source (because I’m testing a possible bug in the binary package). I tried
sudo port -s install coreutils
But this forces all packages to build from source. Is it possible to use binary packages for its dependencies, only build coreutils
from source?

Not exactly a solution, but I got this answer from IRC:
After that, the binary is found in folder
/opt/local/var/macports/build/
(because this is before the installation phase). This is good enough for me.
