In theory, yes. In practice, make config-recursive (which is what you'd use)
takes all-depends-list as input and as such suffers from the same flaw:
config-recursive -> all-depends-list
entry => config-conditional
make config
new dep not in list
I found it easier to use this, especially when building multiple ports from a
list of origins, rather then waking up to an options screen.
