I assume you meant that it should resolve to /usr/obj/<a>/<port>, as
you want /usr/ports to be r/o. That's wrong. The "why" is so that you
can have multiple ports trees around, or just multiple versions of a
port - which is common for a port maintainer. The solution was to make
it resolve to /usr/obj/<path>/<to>/<port>, which for things in
/usr/ports looks like your /usr/obj/usr/ports/<a>/<port>.

So why can't it write to /usr/obj/... ? That's the problem you need to
solve.
