Do you mean that the xbl Makefile wants to be in
${WRKSRC}/some_source_dir, but that, for the purposes of the
port, you moved it to ${WRKSRC}? Rather than doing that, I would
probably just leave it in ${WRKSRC}/some_source_dir, set
MAKEFILE="some_source_dir/Makefile" in the port-Makefile, and
then patch ${WRKSRC}/some_source_dir to include
alwaysrunme::
cd some_source_dir
Kludgy and hacky, but it should work...
If I don't understand, feel free to clarify... :)
