Using "port contents hdf5 | grep \\.h$" I would agree that all this  
port's headers are in ${prefix}/include. Is that a problem? Would it  
be better to have them in a subdirectory? The port doesn't seem to do  
anything to change the header location at present, so it just installs  
them where the developer of that software thought they should go. Is  
there a problem you're trying to solve by moving the headers?
