I was thinking of this:
# grep -n -C2 Makefile.local /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
915-
916-# If they exist, include Makefile.inc, then architecture/operating
917:# system specific Makefiles, then local Makefile.local.
918-
919-.if ${MASTERDIR} != ${.CURDIR} && exists(${.CURDIR}/../Makefile.inc)
--
938-.endif
939-
940:.if exists(${MASTERDIR}/Makefile.local)
941:.include "${MASTERDIR}/Makefile.local"
942-USE_SUBMAKE= yes
943-.endif

OK. Then could we have please the right way documented somewhere for the
users ? Eventually explaining the interaction / precedence of the config
files we have: the options, plus variations of the solution Ulrich
posted (plus pkgtools.conf, plus unsupported Makefile.local).
