A port should not attempt to modify (or create or delete) a file in filespath, 
nor anywhere outside of worksrcpath (except perhaps for copying default 
configuration files in a post-activate block).

The usual way to accomplish what you're doing here would be to have a script in 
the files directory, which you would commit to the repository as normal, 
containing the desired script, with the path to the applications directory 
represented by the placeholder "@APPLICATIONS_DIR@". The port installs the file 
where it needs to go in the destroot, then uses reinplace to replace the 
placeholder with its final value.
