Have you tried ALT_HOME?

mail/dcc-dccd/Makefile:

# ALT_HOME -    DCC keeps its config files in its home direcotry but writes
#               status and database files there as well.  This latter point
#               means that the FreeBSD default home directory for DCC,
#               /usr/local/dcc, cannot be mounted read-only.
#
#               DCC's default home dir is /var/dcc breaks FreeBSD hierarchy
#               conventions, but allows for a read-only /usr.
#
#               Setting ALT_HOME on will set DCC's home to /var/dcc, but
#               keep its binaries in /usr/local/dcc/libexec.  Since this
#               also means DCC's config files will be in /var/dcc, for
#               convenience a soft link from /usr/local/etc/dcc to /var/dcc
#               may be created.
#
#               Note also that dccifd's default socket location is DCC's
#               home, so if /var/dcc is used for the home, then programs
#               like SpamAssassin may need to be explicitly told where
#               to find dccifd's socket.
