You should 'make config-conditional' to save yourself some work. make config 
always shows you the dialogue, while config-conditional checks to see if the 
variablenames have changed and if not, just moves on using what you already 
have in /var/db/ports.

These are the ports that will bite you:
# find /usr/ports -name 'configure' -path '*/scripts/*' \
        -exec grep -l '/usr/bin/dialog' {} +
/usr/ports/emulators/vmware3/scripts/configure
/usr/ports/japanese/typist/scripts/configure
/usr/ports/misc/sonytv/scripts/configure
/usr/ports/print/apsfilter/scripts/configure
/usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gnu/scripts/configure
/usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gpl/scripts/configure

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
