I just introduced the use of %%DATADIR%% to the pkg-plist of one
of my ports, only to learn that it doesn't work as I had expected.

When a port has GNU_CONFIGURE set, and DATADIR is set, shouldn't
the ports machinery automatically set the following as well?

  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--datadir=${DATADIR}


That is, shouldn't we add something like

  .if defined(GNU_CONFIGURE)
  .if defined(DATADIR)
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --datadir=${DATADIR}
  .endif
  .endif

to Mk/bsd.ports.mk?
