I think the solution that solves the problem neatly and succinctly is
using make.conf.5, and leaving make.conf empty. Make.conf.local is just
more crap in /etc, which is already overloaded with too much stuff.

I'd even be willing to put the man page together if it's agreed
that it's the right solution.
