Comment:

 Replying to [comment:3 ryandesign@…]:
 > Confirmed, this problem exists when the MacPorts prefix is not
 /opt/local. The reason is that in the pre-patch phase, ${prefix} is
 inserted into the file being patched, and then the patchfile assumes that
 it is /opt/local that has been inserted.

 Now fixed in r78589.

 > I do not understand why this port has a pre-patch phase, a patchfile,
 and a post-patch phase, all affecting project.pbxproj. I would think that
 at most a patchfile and a post-patch reinplace would be needed.

 I've left this as-is. Turns out the pre-patch reinplace is affecting many
 many lines, so expressed as a patchfile this would be rather voluminous.

 > Note that the current patchfile isn't correct, in that it replaces
 "/opt/local/lib/libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib" with "@@PREFIX@@/libcrypto.dylib"
 when it should be replacing it with "@@PREFIX@@/lib/libcrypto.dylib".
 Curiously, the software still manages to be linked with the proper
 libcrypto; not sure how that's happening.

 Upon further investigation, I saw that this peculiarity was then undone by
 the post-patch reinplace, which replaced "@@PREFIX@@" with
 "${prefix}/lib". I've changed this in the above revision as well, so now
 "@@PREFIX@@" gets replaced with "${prefix}" as one would expect.
