See Maxim's post, as well. You need the '=' to delay the evaluation of the
FILES definition until the .for is parsed, and you need the bsd.port.pre.mk
included so that FILESDIR is defined by the time the .for is parsed.
Hmm, that evaluation at the time of the .for is counter-intuitive but a test
case proves it to be how it works.
