Your only option is overriding in /usr/portslang/gcc43/Makefile.local. This is
because make.conf is read *before* the Makefile and the Makefile simply
overrides your values. Makefile.local is read *after* the Makefile.
csup will leave it alone, however portsnap will delete the entire directory
before upgrading the port, so your Makefile.local will be shot.
