--- Comment #5 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs at FreeBSD.org> ---
Having looked at this with Justin ... Ultimately, we probably want a FreeBSD
specific block in here if there is a convention that can be relied on now and
into the future, and is better than, more reliable or beneficial than:

http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/70990e795657/Lib/distutils/util.py#l67

Until then, or unless there's a more canonical or conventional way for gobject
to be deriving and generating egg-info, it looks like %%MACHINE%% in pkg-plist
might be the way to go, at least in the immediate term.

Having said that, I also can't see or find any other ports special casing this
mechanism for egg-info directory name generation, and that raises a flag.

>From a Python@ point of view, finding a root cause fix, that is upstreamable
(if applicable) is highly desirable.
