>Description:
During a 'make install' as non-root, certain make targets are performed after using su to switch to root. Currently, the docbook-420 port attempts to create a directory in ${PREFIX} before the 'su' occurs which fails.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run 'make install' as a non-root user (who is in wheel).
>Fix:
Use 'pre-su-install' instead of 'pre-install'.
