Are you sure? IMHO if PREFIX is defined before installing any port
and never gets changed than all ports should respect PREFIX.

Steve, did you define a new PREFIX before installing *any* port at
the
system in question? There should be the fore-mentioned problem if
one
*change* PREFIX after installing some ports.
They may be respecting PREFIX, but may also be honoring LOCALBASE?=
/usr/local, != PREFIX, during dependency checks:
98 BUILD_DEPENDS= zip:${PORTSDIR}/archivers/zip \
...
105
${LOCALBASE}/lib/libcppunit.so:${PORTSDIR}/devel/cppunit \
, so problems may arise. If you're going to define a non-default
PREFIX, you must set LOCALBASE to match. And even if you do, if you
have an alternative, non-empty LOCALBASE that is in your path, or
that
contains shared libraries visible to the loader, then you may still
encounter problems. I think that PC-BSD uses something corresponding
to multiple PREFIXes in their approach to fat packages, and they had
to make a number of changes to the base system as well as to ports in
order to do so.
By the way, I guess some of the shared libraries in this port's
BUILD_DEPENDS have to use a fully-qualified path (and were placed
there instead of in LIB_DEPENDS to avoid registering a run-time
dependency?), but I don't know why that was thought to be necessary
for the binary executables gperf and vigra-config.

BTW, QAT was used to do experimental runs with non-default PREFIX.
Those reports were very useful.

Yes you are right gperf and vigra-config dependencies are wrong in that
case.
I didn't see it because it is fixed in the short coming 3.4.2.
I'm focus on it sorry
