  Modified:    share/mk  bsd.port.mk
  Log:
  Add a variable LOCAL_PREFIX that defaults to "/usr/local", as a
  counterpart to X11BASE (default "/usr/X11R6").
  
  Now PREFIX is set to ${X11BASE} or ${LOCAL_PREFIX} depending on
  whether USE_IMAKE or USE_X11 is set or not.
  
  This enables us to refer to non-X ports from X ports using
  ${LOCAL_PREFIX}, thus removing most of the remaining "/usr/local"s
  from the ports tree.
  
  This will also allow the system administrator to move the whole
  "local" tree to somewhere else, without affecting X ports.  (Of course
  not all ports are necessarily happy with that, but we're working on
  it.)
  
  Based on: an idea that came up while I was watching a football game
            several months ago ("hey, maybe I can move that sideline
            without disturbing the other!")
