Let's clarify.

My change allow to add a new directive to libmap.conf
which means that:
prior to my patch the mapping should be added to /etc/libmap.conf

after my patch we just need to make sure that /etc/libmap.conf has the following
line:
includedir /usr/local/etc/libmap

the ports can now create /usr/local/etc/libmap/myport.conf
