>Description:
If you use the "-m" or "-M" option with portupgrade it only makes use of the last passed argument. For example if I try to install port "test" with make option "x" and "y" by the command :

portinstall -P -m x=1 -m y=1 test

This ends up with the result that the port was compiled with option "y" but none of the previous mentioned option.
So if you need to provide more than one make argument, you cannot use portupgrade etc. That's very bad. Yo I have to use the classic way again, make install clean...
