Well, it's "not very smart" for whomever's making the release to not
set that, no, I agree. :) The comments are reasonably explicit
elsewhere in release/Makefile:
# Set this to wherever the distfiles required by ${DOCPORTS} live.
DISTFILES?= ${.CURDIR}/../../ports/distfiles
If you let this default to /usr/ports/distfiles, well, that's your
choice.

Exactly, and those using it have to remain familiar with *all* of its
little foibles or they'll pay the price. :)
