It does, and it does not like INDEXFILE being redefined (it sets INDEXFILE
itself when calling make index and gets confused if INDEXFILE is already
changed by way of make.conf. It does not have a problem with INDEXFILE being
different from "INDEX"/"INDEX-5" if you patch bsd.port.mk though, not sure why.)
