Per our own wiki.freebsd.org/ports/StageDir:

  "When creating a symlink, prepend ${STAGEDIR} to the target path only (and
   generally try to avoid using absolute paths in source). [...]

   Note that source of ${PREFIX}/lib/libfoo.so.42, while seemingly okay,
   could be in fact incorrect, since absolute path can potentially point to
   a wrong location, e.g. when remote filesystem (with installed package)
   is mounted via NFS under non-root mount point. Relative paths are less
   fragile (and often much shorter)."
