------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 I installed hugin-app with no special configuration and it placed its
 .apps in the wrong location.
 {{{
 bash-3.2$ port install hugin-app
 [...]
 --->  Staging hugin-app into destroot

 Warning: hugin-app violates the layout of the ports-filesystems!
 Warning: Please fix or indicate this misbehavior (if it is intended), it
 will be an error in future releases!

 Version: 1.8.2
 bash-3.2$ ls /Stuff/ports/Application
 Hugin.app               HuginStitchProject.app
 }}}

 (Note that I am running my MacPorts installation as a non-root user (thus
 the spurious "running without privileges" message) and its prefix is
 /Stuff/ports/.)

 This location is wrong in three ways:

   * It is not /Applications/MacPorts
   * The directory is named "Application", not "Applications"
   * An Applications directory does not belong in $prefix
