I was looking into bsd.port.mk with the intention of adding subdirectory support to /usr/ports/distfiles and ran into your commit (revision 1.155) that introduces a new variable PATCH_PRFX. As far as I can tell, I couldn't really understand what this commit, which was done without consulting anyone (again, as far as I could tell), and I still can't understand it today. And according to the new and trusty xargs and grep, only net/dgd uses this variable, which further intrigues the wondering mind why it had to be done in the main .mk file. Can you please explain me what it intends to do? Thanks Satoshi
