Disregard. I resolved it.
I figured out what the variable expansion is doing for the 'cd' command.
The problem was due to the fact that my /usr/ports is a sym-link to
/data/freebsd/ports/ports-20130627 so ${.CURDIR} didn't coincide with
the default setting of '/usr/ports' for $PORTSDIR, so the substitution,
$${PORTSDIR}${.CURDIR:S|^${PORTSDIR}||}, returned the wrong path.
I just had to set $PORTSDIR to the full real path of the ports
directory.
It would be a nice enhancement to the make file though, to handle
/usr/ports being a sym-link without having to set $PORTSDIR to the full
real path :-).
