slave-ports-list contains:
SLAVE_PORTS= slave_port 1 \
slave_port2 \
.... etc ........

..............
.include "${.CURDIR}/files/slave-ports-list"
.for port in ${SLAVE_PORTS:O}
OPTIONS+= ${port} .......      
.endfor
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
............

on make it search slave-port-list  in /
Same (and expected) if I put ${FILESDIR}/slave-ports-list"

Trying to have some infrastructure to easily maintain a port with about
1000 distfiles by breaking it in slave ports and having a metaport to
install the small ones.
