Personally, I'd love to see /usr/X11R6 folded into /usr/local, but until then, I think it's nothing short of retarded for apps to install into unusual locations to prove a point.
It might be interesting looking at the work the pkgsrc people have done wrt $PREFIX enforcement. On my NetBSD boxen xorg lives under /usr/pkg/xorg and all packages are installed under /usr/pkg, not /usr/X11R6 or /usr/local.
I disagree with NetBSD's PREFIX. I would go with the global prefix, /usr/local. 85% of configure has the /usr/local by default and FreeBSD already has /usr/local (to kill the colour discussions), so all we have to do is remove /usr/X11R6. Before you ask how we can test if the port is respect the prefix, we should be able to find out very easy when you work with pkg-plist by follow the porter handbook.
BTW: FreeBSD doesn't has to be weird. :-)
