Hi;
[...]
links are and build from ports...obviously my preference. However, I can't figure out *where* the ports build! That is, in a standard built-from-source python, one enters the dir, issues an "ls" and sees dirs like "lib", "etc", etc. Where are these dirs in a built-from-port python?

They are relative paths to the PREFIX set by the make system. This is by
default /usr/local.
For more details take a look at the great handbook (section ports using) and
the porter's handbook.

It also might help to take a look at man ports(1) :-)

Regards
Marcus
