Interesting.  I think this is a shell issue.  I've built ports by specifying
environment variables first (my shell at the time was bash).

A sure-fire way would be to set the environment variable before running make.
So, depending on your shell, it would look something like this:

#cd /usrt/ports/irc/bitchx
#export WITH_IPV6=yes
#make
#make install

Of course, "export" is bash-specific.  Other shells like tcsh use "set".  If
neither of these work, I'd resort to the manpage of the shell you're using. =)

Good luck.
