Understood. Other ports which have DEBUG option mostly don't set
WITH_DEBUG but just add something like --enable-debug to *_ARGS. This
kind of DEBUG options are allowed, right (ex. lang/php8[012])?

BTW, I didn't know WITH_DEBUG_PORTS. It's very handy. I tell the user
who requested DEBUG option to use it.
