Comment (by ryandesign):

 I don't know why `prefix` isn't declared by/in portindex, but the fact
 that we haven't needed it for the past decade suggests you should do what
 you're doing a different way, or shouldn't do it.

 For example, the portindex should generate identically on every system (of
 the same OS version and `cxx_stdlib` setting); it should not generate
 differently depending on what ports might be installed or what files might
 be present.
