Hi,

What is the proper way to temporarily change an option on
the command line or within a script?

For example, I have a script that builds both dynamic and
static zsh binaries, without user intervention.  With the
old options system, the script set "WITH_ZSH_STATIC=true"
when building the port.  With the new options framework,
that doesn't work aymore.

Is there a variable that can be set to override what's read
from the options file?  If there is none, this feels like a
regression.

Best regards
   Oliver
