Comment(by mk@…):

 OK, good to know that.

 Verifying the method used to install my parallel MacPorts installations I
 finally found the culprit!

 "MacPorts Guide" states
 {{{
 %% export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
 %% MP_PREFIX=/opt/macports-test
 %% ./configure --prefix=$MP_PREFIX --with-applications-
 dir=$MP_PREFIX/Applications
 %% make
 %% sudo make install
 }}}
 is the necessary command for configuring the port command build, but
 indeed the manual needs to be corrected here.

 I just put it on my ToDo list now. :-)
