 * There was another mkdir -p already there for ./share so this seemed
 * the prudent solution.

That's because it is creating a directory (share/analog) not included
in the standard mtree file.

 * 			 The problem is when you install to somewhere
 * other than /usr/local (by changing PREFIX for example) and you set
 * NO_MTREE, which is exactly the case when you're installing into
 * /home/www, it tries to install analog as bin.

Then don't use NO_MTREE.  Or if you really want to go through all that 
trouble, can't you just mkdir /home/www/bin?

 * Basically, this fix is necessary for the work I'm doing on the www
 * area. The ports mechanism isn't very robust in the face of changes to
 * the defaults.

That's because you used NO_MTREE.  You are not supposed to, unless you 
know what you are doing.

 * I need to import some sgml tools as well, can I create a sgml
 * category?

What kind of tools?

Satoshi
