First, there is the issue of needing to do things to the files

There is a function fs-traverse in MacPorts designed for this.
Grep through the existing portfiles to see how this can be used.
Ok, cool, thanks. Uhm, how does one grep though port files? I
mean I should install a few, and then locally grep my FS?
You don't need to install any ports; all ports' portfiles are already
on your computer. Just go to the dports directory and grep through
them. Portfiles are always in a directory for the port, which is in a
directory for the group. So in the dports directory, "*/*/Portfile"
gets all portfiles.
For example, try:
cd $(port dir MacPorts)/../.. && grep fs-traverse */*/Portfile
