  RIAK_DBDIR?=    /var/db/${PORTNAME}

You have it right there as /var/db, there is no PREFIX there for
/usr/local to slip in. Perhaps you have RIAK_DBDIR=/usr/local/var/db in
your make.conf? And even if you do, it should try to remove any
directory it creates on uninstall. It doesn't matter where it is.

Having a leftover like that means the port will not be committed.
