Take a look at portupgrade (/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade) which has 
portinstall, which you can use instead of cd /usr/ports/blah/blah && make

Then you can configure in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf using ALT_PKGDEP. 
The sample in the config says:

   #   ALT_PKGDEP = {
   #     # If you use apache13-modssl instead of apache13
   #     'apache-1.3.*' => 'apache+mod_ssl-1.3.*',


HTH,

Jonathan
