Subject:   Passing Options to Dependancies During make

How would one go about passing OPTIONS to a dependancy during a port make.=
=20
For example,=20
 PORTA depends upon PORTB, but to build PORTB correctly so that is has some=
=20
functionality required to operate correctly with PORTA you have to set some=
=20
option (WITH_XXX) during the build process of PORTB. How can one configure=
=20
the PORTA Makefile to tell the PORTB Makfile to use a specific option?
 Is this possible?
 If we set WITH_XXX=3Dyes during the make of PORTA, will this be passed dow=
n=20
to the build process of PORTB?=20
(e.g. cd /usr/ports/PORTA; make WITH_XXX=3Dyes)
 Thank You,=20
