>Description:
The Makefile for the editors/xemacs-devel port (CVS v1.59) tries to create a temporary file "tmp_zot" in the current directory as part of the pre-configure rule.  This doesn't work if /usr/ports is mounted read-only from a remote host and WRKDIRPREFIX is set to a different read-write area. The Makefile should use some other appropriate directory (probably /tmp) for scratch files.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to build the editors/xemacs-devel port with /usr/ports mounted read-only.
>Fix:
Change tmp_zot to /tmp/tmp_zot (or a PID-based temporary name, so multiple builds don't step on each other).
