--- Comment #1 from Mateusz Piotrowski <0mp at FreeBSD.org> ---
The configure target and the config target are not the same. Configure is for
running "./configure" in as a part of the building process, while config is for
selecting port options. It is true that the configure target is a no-op
sometimes. Please look for HAS_CONFIGURE and GNU_CONFIGURE variables in the
documentation.

Cheers!
