Just FWIW, it's often easier to fix ports to respect CFLAGS from the
port Makefile. In most cases (including libol) the following lines are
enough:
.if defined(USE_GMAKE)
MAKE_ARGS= CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
.else
MAKE_ARGS= -E CFLAGS
.endif
And this will fix most ports. The difference between our make and
gmake occurs because gmake adds variables defined on the commandline
to ${.MAKEFLAGS} whereas we don't and have to explicitly request it
with either '-e' or '-E'. I've found that sometimes '-e' breaks the
whole build altogether so prefer '-E'.
Usually just picking one of the five lines for a given port is
sufficient. Very few ports need all five lines. ;-)
