We did discuss this a few weeks ago, didn't we? I was waiting for
Chuck Robey to step forward; he wanted to make some changes to
bsd.port.mk to support ${PORTSDOCDIR}.

I think it should be enough to set ${PORTSDOCDIR} to
${PREFIX}/share/doc/${PKGNAME} and add it to the exported variables
for the various scripts and the Makefile in ${WRKSRC}.
