Comment (by afb at macports.org):

 It's like with the spaces in prefix path, it's probably possible to make
 the mtree check work, but there could be other problems hidden with
 allowing paths like a/b//c/d so it's not recommended...

 That being said, I tried just hacking out the expanded_prefix in the
 autoconf tcl but that didn't work so the only way to make it happen is
 rewriting the mtree check or changing user's prefix in the configure file
 (i.e. they specify one thing, and it uses another prefix - without the
 slash)
