I have a similar setup where the actual ports tree lives at
/usr/local/ports, and for testing sometimes I use a symlink in /usr, OR
sometimes I set PORTSDIR to /usr/local/ports. If I do either, I can't
reproduce the error above. However if I do both, I can. Any chance
you're setting PORTSDIR in your make.conf?
