That would be ideal, except that MAKE_ARGS has the ability (and tendency) to
grow without bound whenever you get the arguments to a few complex ports in
there.

Other than that, I like that I can (easily) comment out specific options
when debugging my setup.

Out of curiosity, since this thread has a few posters that seem to know
about pkgtools.conf: I use www/apache-mod_ssl but have to run pkgdb -F quite
often to fix ports that depend on www/apache.  I have this in my
pkgtools.conf:

  ALT_PKGDEP = {
    'apache-1.3.*' => 'apache+mod_ssl-1.3.*'
  }

Any thoughts on why it wouldn't be handling the substitution automatically?
