Sorry for jumping in, this is just a minor pet peeve of mine. I use MAKE_ARGS a lot for portupgrade, but what about for the ones with the stupid dialog boxes? (samba, mod_php4, etc) Many of them assume defaults when BATCH is set and are difficult (need a lot of \\\") or sometimes even impossible to override with environment variables. I have no problem with being user-friendly, but IMHO when these are put in the port should also be automation-friendly and allow itself to be configured with simple environment variables.
