With ports that include a PKGNAME_PREFIX it is required. Otherwise you get
an error like:

If you attempt to run make config for a port with ${PKGNAMEPREFIX} defined, the make config process will error out with:
===> Using wrong configuration file /path/options/file
The solution is to define LATEST_LINK to be prefix-${PORTNAME}, but this should be done internally.

The problem is because ${_OPTIONFILE} is staticially defined (by using echo), 
before the various bsd.*.mk files that set the appropriate PKGNAME_PREFIXs 
like PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX. So part of the options bit is looking for a file
with the prefix and part is looking for a packagename without it, and it
gets itself quite upset.

I have a more detailed and accurate explanation of this problem in an email
somewhere, I will try and find it. (I submitted a PR where LATEST_LINK was
set and the committer removed it and broke the port, so I went and documented
the problem.)
