Thus spake David O'Brien (obrien@FreeBSD.ORG):

So, are you ok with:
- share/mk/sys.mk only sucking in /defaults/make.conf and /etc/make.conf
- bsd.port.mk sucking in $PORTSDIR/Mk/ports.conf and then overwriteable
  in /etc/ports.conf?

(Don't bother about the location in the ports/ tree, which can change).

I think this is the general agreement, isn't it?

Alex
