The ports do assume a standard set of compile-time options.  If you want
to tweak them just before the build starts, you can run ``make
configure'', which will fetch, extract, patch, and configure everything
but stop before the make is started.  See /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk line
220-ish for the standard target list.
