Comment:

 Moving the entire ports tree for one error in a port is unsupported.
 Perhaps that would be practical if if not for the fact that moving the
 ports tree with a restart from scratch, rebuilding everything, is
 unsupported.

 Please come up with a real solution for the error. I don't give a flying
 fuck what path it's looking in, that file doesn't exist anywhere and won't
 in the current state of the port. The path should not matter so long as
 the environment is setup, which it is. I should be able to install to any
 path I want, be it /usr/local or
 /you/mother/was/a/hamster/and/your/father/smelt/of/elderberries! Any piece
 of software than fails when simply installed to non-default location is
 defective. That's simply a fact. Suck it up and fix your bug.
