My eyes are hurting at the sed expressions.  Does this mean that I
can specify multiple flags, and if so how?  How about if I want to
pass values as well, with colons in them, eg: does this handle:

	FOO_DEPENDS=	foo:${PORTSDIR}/bar/foo:build,-DFOO,-UBAR,\
				-DBAZ="\"colon:happy\""

and do the right thing, ie: pass:

	-DFOO -UBAR -DBAZ="\"colon:happy\""

to the port Makefile.

I believe all of these issues would need to be addressed, and a generic
patch written that handles cases like this, before I'd like something
like this to go in.

And yes, I can think of a few cases where something like the above
would be advantageous in terms of merging very similar but currently
seperate ports into "proper" master/slave versions.

(Especially when we collapse the slave versions into the single port,
 code coming soon I hope...)
