thiat woruld work, but it would be better to put it into /etc/src.conf. make.conf will define the variable for any make(1) operation while src.conf is only used for building/installing the world and kernel. (I'll admit that a namespace collision is very unlikely here, but I think it is just good practice to use src.conf for defining things only relevant to the OS.) -- R.
