            Bug ID: 229109
           Summary: config-recursive target broken – most likely due to
                    OPTION_ changes
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bugzilla.freebsd at omnilan.de

The config-recursive target doesn't work correctly anymore.
It recurses also dependencies, which were unset/excluded/siwtched off by
OPTIONS framework.
Some time ago, OPTIONS worked very well.  No idea why someone changed it and
introduced OPTION_ makros, I don't see any benefit anywhere over the previous
usage.

I would like to know if this is going to change again in the near future or if
it's worth to look at config-recursive: and try to fix.
Meanwhile I'll live with unnecessarily spammed db/ports/ directory, making live
harder if one likes to keep overview :-(
