How about, in each of the auto* ports, the post-install makes a directory
${PREFIX}/libexec/${PORTNAME}, and puts symlinks to the binaries there.

E.g., for automake14, you would have:

/usr/local/libexec/automake14/aclocal -> /usr/local/bin/aclocal14
/usr/local/libexec/automake14/automake -> /usr/local/bin/automake14

etc etc

Then you could just add the appropriate libexec/autowhatever dir to the
front of the path.
