Comment(by blb at macports.org):

 Replying to [ticket:17182 ryandesign@…]:
 > And it could show a different example using variable expansion in the
 path, if the path is not in `${prefix}` (a file in `${frameworks_dir}`
 perhaps)

 Note that frameworks_dir is in ${prefix} (at least by default, unless
 --with-frameworks-dir is used with configure).  Once variable expansion
 works, then the example could be
 {{{
 path:${frameworks_dir}/MacPorts.framework/Versions/A/MacPorts:MacPorts_Framework
 }}}
