And a sh script solution, in case it is of use to someone:

tingo@kg-core1$ pinfo
 pinfo - find a given port in /usr/ports
    Use with 'pinfo xxx', where xxx is the name of the port.

It looks like this:

tingo@kg-core1$ more `which pinfo`
#!/bin/sh
# @(#)port      1.0     10-nov-2001     T. Ingolfsen / KG4, Norway
#
# Just a quick hack to get any easier way to search for ports
#
NAME=`basename ${0}`
PORTNAME="${1}"
PORTSDIR="/usr/ports"

if [ "$1" = "" ]; then
        echo " ${NAME} - find a given port in /usr/ports"
        echo "  Use with '${NAME} xxx', where xxx is the name of the port."
else
        if [ ! -d ${PORTSDIR} ]; then
                echo " ERROR: ${PORTSDIR} doesn't exist!"
                exit 0
        fi
        cd ${PORTSDIR}
        make search name=${PORTNAME}
fi
(yes, it was originally called "port", but at some point in time it
conflicted with a port I installed, thus I renamed it "pinfo")
