Subject: CFR: patch to cleanup usage of SRC_BASE in various ports

I am trying to debug a problem in the package building scripts, and
in the process of debugging it, have found some inconsistencies with
ports that require kernel sources.  For installations that keep their
latest sources in /usr/src, this patch should have no effect; however,
for others (such as pointyhat, which has multiple src trees) this should
fix edge conditions with 'make describe'.

I would appreciate feedback on the following patch:

Thanks.
