 I have worked out the exact problem now: it manifests when /usr/obj/`pwd`
 exists when you type make in a port. I tripped over this problem by
 setting WRKDIRPREFiX to /usr/obj -- there is no way this will work.
 The fix for the problem is still to rename the MAKEFILE variable in
 bsd.port.mk and all the ports that use it; the workaround is to avoid
 creating the troublesome directories under /usr/obj.
