I agree with you, and I meant to mention this to gerald@ earlier, but
I forgot.  The Ports system is not now well-equipped to deal with
LOCALBASE != PREFIX for a lot of software, and most people don't do
this, so the impact is limited, but it does break some test builds and
utilities, as you have seen.
