I have a contradictory opinion. I think defining the options in
/etc/make.conf is ideal, since it is the only place that the options are
guaranteed to be used no matter how you decide to build ports. Whether
you use portupgrade, portmanager, or just cd into the port directory and
make install, options defined in make.conf will be used. If you do have
options that apply only to particular ports you can partition them using
the method described in the portmanager man page, to wit:
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin}
WITH_SPF_QUERY=1
WITH_MYSQL=1
WITH_TOOLS=1
USE_SQLDB=1
.endif
This allows you to use different make optins depending for each port if
you wish.
