hi there,

any chance support for setting CC/CXX/CPP unconditionally in src.conf could be
added before the release of freebsd 10.0? the way it is done atm is really not
intuitive. the rule should really be:

- make.conf = applies globally
- src.conf  = applies only to /usr/src
( maybe a ports.conf or port.conf could be introduced at some point, too)

... the current situation, where only certain variables can be set in src.conf
is not ideal.

cheers.
