Reading through bsd.port.mk, it appears the only way to reliably do this 
is to put *all* of the patches into PATCHFILES.  That way, they get 
applied in alphabetical order.  If I split the PATCHFILES into two, 
with the first one listing the regular patches that used to be under 
files/, and with the second one being wrapped in an .if defined 
statement, things should work correctly.  This is what I'm currently 
using.

So far things appear to be working correctly.  Just waiting for ClamAV 
and libesmtp to finish installing so that I can check that things are 
working correctly.

If there is a better way, let me know.  :)
