Perhaps those were left over from a previous install?  When you redefine 
PREFIX, that should affect everything in the port that is installed. 
For example, the normal PREFIX is /usr/local/, so docs are installed in 
/usr/loca/share/doc/portname.  If you redefine PREFIX to /opt/kaffee, 
docs should be installed in /opt/kaffee/share/docs/portname.
