That should probably be PREFIX="${TRUEPREFIX}"

Yep, long-known problem with python.port.mk

Python normally creates pyc files for imported modules if the directory
is writable. We pre-create these so that if e.g. someone runs the program
as root, we don't get stray pyc files left behind after uninstall.
You can remove it by using ${MODPY_BIN} ${MODPY_LIBDIR}/compileall.py
to create the pyc file.

Don't hardcode this, use MAKE_FLAGS= CXX="${CXX}" etc.

IMO hardcoding the path is the most sensible way for ports.

That's not really a problem. If it needs pdflatex, list the dependency.
