I've seen some funny things with WRKDIRPREFIX too, but I can't reproduce them. I've mostly seen it on my chroot tinderbox, which always runs with WRKDIRPREFIX set because the ports tree is mounted read-only. The tinderbox is currently broken for other reasons. I tried rebuilding libidn on the host system (outside the tinderbox), but it didn't break (with and without WRKDIRPREFIX, with portmaster or "make install"). I guess I need to fix my tinderbox to get further...
