Now, if this could only be used *within* a ports Makefile to affect other ports

You'll want to use either sysctl(8) to change the settings dynamically, or
use /etc/sysctl.conf to modify the settings permanently. I'm not sure if
there's a benefit to rolling a new kernel versus using sysctl.conf, or if
things even work that way anymore.
