#16514: Minicom: bad path for lock file

Minicom create a lock file when it is launched to prevent another instance
to be called.
For now, Portfile set this to ${prefix}/var which is 755 by default on
leopard, so by default only root can call minicom.
It would be better if --enable-lock-dir was set up on ${prefix}/lock which
could be set 1777.
Else if we accept path outside of prefix, we can use /var/tmp (or /tmp to
be more portable)
