I count two. PORTVERSION and ISCVERSION. Can you show me the
third?

I didn't miss it, frankly I'm not sure what it does. However,
by changing PORTNAME I'm sure that 'pkg_add bind' and 'pkg_add bind9' do
exactly what I want them to.
Frankly, while some of what the ports do currently is quite
elegant, in my opinion, too much of it tries too hard to be too clever,
and ends up just being hopelessly obfuscated. My version of the port may
not fit your idea of elegance, but it accomplishes the goals I had in
mind, and that's good enough for me.
