(copy of msg sent to -questions)

Hello:

How do I "properly" add a config-option to a port?

Specifically, how do I add "enable-suexec" to Apache?

There may be some other configure options I want to change, too.

I tried "make CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-suexec" but that
didn't work.  I could edit the Makefile directly, but that
begets port-maintenance uglies.  I also can't find anything
in, for example, the Handbook or the Lehey book.

Please cc replies to me.

Thanks,

-kc
