It does.  Some things have changed, others have been added, and yet
others have been removed.  This is the file that holds the default
values that /etc/defaults/make.conf used to have though.

Do it in /etc/make.conf please.

It means "this make variable *has* a value".  Some things depend on
the existence of certain make variables.  Others depend on the
variables having particular values.  This is one of the things that
fall in the first category.  Any value would be as good as "yes",
"yeah", "Yes, please.", etc.
