I've read threads from it.

It might be already discussed, I think it's better to use one
directory like current FreeBSD's ports for storing some files;
patch-*, install, deinstall, message, and so on.

It could avoid name conflict between with filenames and Makefile's
targets, and give more flexibility.

Best regards.
