I'm not sure how this fact is pertinent for dports.
All it implies is that the base kde4 directory can be /usr/local/ rather
than /usr/local/kde4 but that wasn't really in question.
We wouldn't want to customize a set of ports like this. Each
customization represents extra work for us. Mostly we are relying on
FreeBSD to do the right thing. Usually they do.
