the -I/path/to/include should go probably go into the CPPFLAGS, not  
the (C|CXX)FLAGS. i've only tried it with nano, but nano i.e.

  * works with the CPP- & LDFLAGS set
  * does not work with the C-, CXX-, and LDFLAGS set

nonetheless, either the ports' creators don't stick really closely to  
that rule or it's us. i ran

   $grep "\-I\${prefix}/include" */*/Portfile > ~/foo; cd
   $gnused -r -i "s/.+CFLAGS\=\"*-I\\$\{prefix}\/include[^\n]*/foo/g"  
foo
   $gnused -r -i "s/.+CPPFLAGS\=\"*-I\\$\{prefix}\/include[^\n]*/bar/ 
g" foo
   $gnused -r -i "s/.+CXXFLAGS\=\"*-I\\$\{prefix}\/include[^\n]*/bla/ 
g" foo

(resulting in foo[1])
