Hi. I've checked with portmgr and fixing the support for directory names with
colon seems not the way to go.

This is a limitation coming with `make` and fixing this behavior, while
possible, introduces quite a lot of complexity in the framework to fix a corner
case.

Specifically, with PACKAGES, an easy workaraound could be to have a symlink to
the folder without colons.
