How about check in the bsd.gnome.mk as an example? It's what I like this 
method, it would be nice if we have something like bsd.lib.mk or whatever. I 
think, it would be easier to keep the track on bsd.lib.mk instead chase the 
over 8,400 ports. But, I don't know if it will cause the problem when 
bsd.lib.mk gets large thought.

Cheers,
Mezz
