Indeed true nowadays. However I'm pretty sure a couple of months ago
"WITH_NTLM=YES" and ".MAKEFLAGS=-DWITH_NTLM" weren't identical, and
"WITH_NTLM=YES" just wouldn't make it (verbatim :-)). I'm not sure what
the reason was. I suspect a change to the fetchmail port's Makefile, or
to bsd.port.mk. There was a reason why I had to do it this way. Anyway,
history.
