You should the following line in your /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk (I
have them starting at line 393) :
# Get the object format.
PORTOBJFORMAT!= test -x /usr/bin/objformat && /usr/bin/objformat || echo aout
CONFIGURE_ENV+= PORTOBJFORMAT=${PORTOBJFORMAT}
SCRIPTS_ENV+= PORTOBJFORMAT=${PORTOBJFORMAT}
MAKE_ENV+= PORTOBJFORMAT=${PORTOBJFORMAT}
PLIST_SUB+= PORTOBJFORMAT=${PORTOBJFORMAT}
They are there if you cvsup -stable but, unfortunately, not in the 2.2.7
release.
