I guess the takeaway is to warn potential dmg users: "If you use

Yes--unless you build those dmgs with a different prefix :-)
Which, again, you absolutely should do. Please do not distribute
disk images that install things into /opt/local, or you may earn
yourself a place on our ProblemHotlist:

It almost sounds like a badge of honour! ;) Is the prefix one of
those things that can be overriden on the command line? Something
like 'sudo port mdmg myport prefix=/opt/myport'?
