>Description:
	The Porters Handbook, part 4.10 lists a dependency on ${PREFIX}, while
	a portlint check says people should use ${LOCALBASE} or ${X11BASE}
	instead.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Have a port with a dependency which contains ${PREFIX} and unleash
	portlint -abcvtN on it.
>Fix:

	Not sure.  Either the documenation is faulty, or portlint is outdated.
	Hence submitted to ports at first, but can/needs to be reassigned to
	docs if it is a documenation error.
