I guess so, but I needed only this for the shells when I posted the
problem.
In most cases, the fix is simply to preprend ${DESTDIR} at the destination
of the "install", "rm", ... statements of {pre-|post-}install targets.
The main difficulty is to seek them all in the ports.

I don't fully agree with your patch :
- ${PREFIX} does not contain ${DESTDIR}, If I install bash with DESTDIR=/mnt,
${PREFIX} still has its default value of /usr/local, so, you have not
to trim /mnt from ${PREFIX} in ${DESTDIR}/etc/shells contents.
- (minor) ${DESTDIR}/etc and ${DESTDIR}/etc/shells are expected to already
exists if you made previously what it's explained in jail(8) manual page.
You are expected to install ports in a functional hierarchy.
