I am pretty sure that your suggestions of /var/tmp/p or /opt/ports would
shorten paths and result in a one time fix.  However I am also trying to
clean up port builds in general, for community benefit.  Therefore I am a
bit pedantic about clean port fixes.  Please bear with me.

The good news is that the upstream developer created an easy makefile fix
which will presumably be in the next GDAL release.  I will post the link in
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/59510.
