${LOCALBASE} funniness?

Hi,

I have a port with the line:

.if exists(/usr/local/bin/flac) && !defined(WITHOUT_FLAC)

that is true, while:

.if exists(${LOCALBASE}/bin/flac) && !defined(WITHOUT_FLAC)

is not.

  I've added an @${ECHO_MSG} "${LOCALBASE}" and it outputs /usr/local.
Am I going crazy here?  Incidentally:

.if exists(${X11BASE}/bin/flac) && !defined(WITHOUT_FLAC)

works (if I touch flac there).

  Thanks a lot,

-lewiz.
