We distingush them now and I'd rather keep this useful feature.

The main question for me was how to do it. Say, we have
OVERRIDE_LINUX (which implies both base and non-base ports).
How can we name a variable to override OVERRIDE_LINUX? ;-)

At last I desided that OVERRIDE_LINUX_NON_BASE_PORTS is more
intuitive and doesn't ruin current status-quo.
