>Description:
The DragonFly version poudriere sets up most of the jail as "read-only" which makes it obvious when ports are trying to install files outside of $LOCALBASE.  In this case, www/npm is trying to write to /root and it fails at the install phase:

===>  Installing for npm-1.2.12
===>   npm-1.2.12 depends on package: node>=0.8.0 - found
===>   Generating temporary packing list
===>  Checking if www/npm already installed
node cli.js install -g -f

I suspect the makefile needs patching to prevent mkdir at $HOME
