There are a couple of simple packages I'd like to build (ispell being the
most common) which clearly require changes in either the Makefile or the
code itself to install.  Is there a record somewhere of the changes that are
made to ports that would allow me to modify the source without installing
via the ports method?

I'd appreciate if this didn't become a "why don't you use the ports
collection" discussion.  This isn't some anti-ports statement, I just find I
learn a lot more about stuff when I build it myself.  TIA.
