# Given that the slave makefile will normally only have WITH_FOO=yes and
# then include the master Makefile, what about having this in
# bsd.port.subdir.mk?  I'll see if I can come up with a patch which would allow:
# 
# SUBDIR+="postfix -DWITH_MYSQL"

# which would translate to "cd postfix && make -DWITH_MYSQL"

That's an interesting idea!  I wonder how this would work with
Satoshi's package building scripts?
