This port's Makefile says:

CONFIGURE_ARGS= --with-x --prefix=${PREFIX} --with-tcl-include=${PORTSDIR}/lang/tcl/work/tcl7.3 --with-tcl-library=${PORTSDIR}/lang/tcl/work/tcl7.3 --with-tk-include=${PORTSDIR}/x11/tk/work/tk3.6 --with-tk-library=${PORTSDIR}/x11/tk/work/tk3.6 --with-blt-library=${PORTSDIR}/lang/tclX/work/tclX7.3b/tclmaster/lib

but it seems to build fine with the installed stuff in /usr/local if
the extracted sources don't exist.  In fact, while it's configuring,
it seems to even learn to ignore what's told to them:

Since we have LIB_DEPENDS and EXEC_DEPENDS (soon to be BUILD_DEPENDS
and RUN_DEPENDS), you can assume that tcl, tk and tclX are already
installed in /usr/local.

Do you think you can clean this up?  The scotty port's Makefile looks
similar too.
