 There is a proposed fix for this overall problem, but I haven't heard any
  public feedback, positive or negative, about it.  If you are interested,
  please test the patch and submit comments.

 It goes to fixing the underlying problem with the improper treatment
  of PREFIX and DESTDIR in bsd.port.mk.  A number of individual ports
  will have to be fixed as well since they depend on the broken behavior
  of bsd.port.mk.  But there are many ports already broken anyway (such
  as the ones mentioned in both this PR (20601) and the PR above (28155)).
