build targets ("make all", "make stage", "make check-plist") and
packaging ("make package").

Setting WRKDIRPREFIX to a directory you can write to can fix that, and
PACKAGES specifies where the package should end up. PORT_DBDIR can be
diverted to a directory so you can run even "make config" without root
privileges.
With that, and the distfiles already downloaded ("make checksum"), you
should be able to build most ports without privileges. A few set
NEED_ROOT, those won't do without...
