Answer:
-------
Not possible
Alternative:
------------
1) Let it install in /opt/sfw
2) move /opt/sfw /to/wherever/you/need/it
3) Create a soft link /opt/sfw pointing /to/wherever/you/need/it
Experiences:
-----------
-If you create the /opt/sfw soft link first, the installer deletes it and
creates a directory.
-use prodreg to install and/or uninstall
Thanks to:

Doug Otto who mentioned to choose custom install but didn't work
Jed Dobson who recommended to not touch it
Tim Evans who recommended to do a pkgadd -a none but will possibly break
David Foster who recommended to create a soft link before installing
Mike Penny who recommended to move it after installing or creating a
prior link
