The canonical location for ports is ${LIBDIR}/${PORTNAME}, but remember
that unless these are run-time loadable modules, this directory must be
in the library search path when you run the app.  This means that you
either have to ldconfig the directory using an rc_subr script (which
defeats the purpose of having a private library directory) or install a
wrapper that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH before execing the real binary.
