Non-prefix safe ports

Building out a new machine from scratch using /opt (rather than the
usual /usr/local) as LOCALBASE, I found the following two ports, which
break:
* multimedia/openh264 - the files built by the port get installed into
stage/usr/local/... instead of stage/opt -- I had to manually move
the files around before "make install" succeeded
* graphics/gtk-update-icon-cache - at configure-stage, the port
wrongly complaints, that the cairo installed on the system does not
support X11. After I created a symlink: /usr/local -> ../opt, the
problem went away.
I don't have the time right now to offer patches, so I'm not filing a PR
-- just raising awareness... Please, do the needful so the healing can
begin. Thank you. Yours,
