I thought we'd all pretty much agreed that things like this don't belong
in /etc/make.conf.  I would have thought that this would be more at home
in the system profile (as an environment variable) or in some
ports-specific Makefile.

I can remember discussions about such a Makefile, but I can't remember
any resolution.  Did we ever decide on a file to polute, other than
/etc/make.conf? :-)
