Cheers, that got me on the right track.

%%PREFIX%% is set to substitute for %D. I don't understand this - but
setting the substitution to ${PREFIX} works. Also the substitutions
needed to be quoted.

This works:

PLIST_SUB+=	PREFIX=${PREFIX}
PLIST_FILES+=	"@cwd %%X11BASE%%"
PLIST_FILES+=	share/gnome/applications/xyzzy.desktop
PLIST_FILES+=	"@cwd %%PREFIX%%"
