It's the job of the portfile author to ensure that it installs its files
to the right place. The base code provides some defaults that make this
easy in many cases.

Some ports legitimately need to install files outside the usual places.
They should be setting 'destroot.violate_mtree yes', but not all of them
do yet, so making mtree violation a hard error would break things at
this point.
