The bug is not with my port -- the bug is that the new bsd.port.mk tests
for the existance of PLIST *BEFORE* any of the *-install targets are
done.  Thus if you frob it in "pre-install", bsd.port.mk won't notice it.

IMHO, the reason you might want to modify PLIST after the "post-build"
target, is PLIST is an install thing, not a build thing.
