does MacPorts have a hardcoded default location where it installs its stuff? (the Fink i used years ago put everything in /sw) can we a) hack autogen.sh to invoke a "autoconf" in MacPorts' location (and maybe Fink's as well) if it exists b) put some check into configure that whatever part of MacPorts messes up the build (or just something that identifies MacPorts) is not on $PATH?
