Check your history.  I was a port maintainer many years
ago.  Dropped maintainership of all my ports after several
unreviewed changes by others to those ports were made.
These unreviewed changes broke those ports and I was
forced to clean up the mess.

This of course has little to do with the issue that I have
raised here.  A port, namely math/lapack, has an option to
build profiled libraries and the port does not honor that
option when selected.  It's simple Q&A.  Either remove the
option or fix it.
