For those ports that support a 'make config' target, you can
always use 'config-recursive':

    # cd /usr/ports/category/foo
    # make config-recursive

There are some ports that don't support 'config' though, so you
may have to create a local customization set of options in the
`/usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf' file.  Look for the comment that
describes the MAKE_ARGS hash of options.
