>Description:
It is possible to install mailman into a non-standard path
through use of the MM_DIR tunable. Unfortunately, the port installation logic doesn't
apply the modified MM_DIR to the start script - it just assumes ${PREFIX}/mailman.
Some judicious sed'ding is required on the start script at install time to allow for
MM_DIR not being ${PREFIX}/mailman.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the port with non-standard MM_DIR and try to start mailman.
>Fix:
