I believe you have indeed found a bug!   The pkg / mpkg creation code  
was written a long time ago and I would not be at all surprised to  
learn that it has not kept pace with other changes in macports.  The  
code for all the packaging procedures lives in macports/base/src/ 
package1.0/ and represent an excellent learning opportunity /  
potential contribution for anyone. :-)
