Probably the way to accomplish this is to create a custom repository
of portfiles (likely containing only the single port you want to
modify) and then edit the portfile to accomplish your desires.  This
is basically described in the Macports Guide.

You could probably accomplish what you want in a slightly easier
fashion, but it would then get wiped out whenever the port gets
upgraded, so the custom repository method is required to accomplish
what you want on a longer timescale.

I could be wrong though.
