For MacPorts 1.6, it might be a good idea to consider moving 
"macports1.0" from the current @TCL_PACKAGE_DIR@ directory to the 
@prefix_expanded@/share/macports/Tcl directory, in order to make the 
MacPorts installation self-contained within the designated prefix ?

If the "macports1.0" module needs to be in the system's Tcl package 
directory in order for other (inferior) software to find it, then can't 
this be accomplished by setting up a symbolic link ? e.g. 
/Library/Tcl/macports1.0 -> /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/macports1.0
