Why don't you define NOCLEANDEPENDS?

I use it all the time.  I even have an alias for it. :)

Ok.  Here are the ports using it:

===
## grep NO_WRKDIR */*/Makefile
benchmarks/tcpblast/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR= yes
devel/linux_devel/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=   yes
editors/staroffice/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=  yes
games/xgammon/Makefile:.if !defined(NO_WRKDIR)
japanese/edict/Makefile:.if !defined(NO_WRKDIR)
russian/elm.language/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=      YES
russian/netscape3.language/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=      YES
russian/pine.language/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=      YES
x11-toolkits/xview-clients/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=  yes
x11-toolkits/xview-lib/Makefile:NO_WRKDIR=      yes
===

Not too many, but we'll have to look into them first.

By the way, about manpages -- if there are ports that already handle
NOMANCOMPRESS, maybe we should add a variable saying "this port honors
NOMANCOMPRESS so bsd.port.mk shouldn't try to do something too
clever".  ".if !defined(NOMANCOMPRESS) MANCOMPRESSED=t" seems a little
too ugly for my taste....
