Setting WORDIRPREFIX in /etc/make.conf will cause all the 'work'
directories to be put in that directory. While cleaning them up wasn't
my reason for doing that (I shared /usr/ports across several
platforms), it sures makes cleaing up the work directories easy.

Ditto for DISTDIR, if you want to clean up distfiles.
