>Description:
Trying to make and install elm port to another directory by means of setting PREFIX=/some/other/directory doesn't work.  It is still made as if it wants to go in /usr/local
>How-To-Repeat:
1)  chdir /usr/ports/mail/elm
2)  make PREFIX=/usr/test
3)  make PREFIX=/usr/test install
>Fix:
The scripts/pre-configure script has /usr/local hard coded into it.  Before patching running sed over the file to replace /usr/local with whatever PREFIX is set to will solve the problem
