 hardcode /opt/local/.

  *  I will contact the upstream developer about incorporating these
 patches so we don't have to.

  * But just out of curiosity how could I avoid using the hard path
 /opt/local/ in the Makefile.  Would make know what to do with ${prefix} in
 the patch below?

 {{{
  ifdef DARWIN
 -       XMKMF := /usr/X11/bin/xmkmf
 +       XMKMF := ${prefix}/bin/xmkmf
  else
         XMKMF := /usr/bin/X11/xmkmf
  endif
 }}}

 >   - Your email address should be obfuscated.

  * I see others using the the obfuscated format "domain:user".  Would that
 be acceptable?

 >   - Please see
 [http://guide.macports.org/#reference.phases.fetch.advanced] for a better
 way to handle svn fetching

  * I was unable to obtain the desired source using advanced fetch because
 I assumed incorrectly that revision numbers are tags.  I will contact the
 upstream developer about tags when he returns from travel in a couple of
 days.
