At least with portupgrade-devel, that doesn't seem true. I read it
too, and the source was an unofficial blog. For example, I have:
MAKE_ARGS =3D {
[...]
'print/apsfilter' =3D> 'PAPERSIZE=3Da4',
'print/ghostscript-gpl' =3D> 'A4=3Dyes',
[...]
}
ghostscript-gpl is a dependency of apsfilter. Now, ghostscript-gpl
needed update. I removed apsfilter for this testing purpose and:
# portupgrade -NR apsfilter
[...]

It is definitively the most universal and IMHO it should appear in the
Handbook.
I just like to keep all ports/packages upgrading options at the same
place (USE_PKGS, MAKE_ARGS, USE_PKGS_ONLY...).
BTW, as far as I can recollect, as a global-honouring tool for ports
configuration, the most frequently quoted one along these lists was
ports-mgmt/portconf.
