I was going to suggest this too until I realized that this was no
longer in the distributed make.conf. That made me suspicious so I did,

   % grep PASSIVE /usr/ports/Mk/*
   % grep PASSIVE /usr/share/mk/*
   % 

Which showed no such variable is used in the mk-files. Is it just you
and I or was there once such a beast? Or is there still one and I just
have not found it?
