 * 	However, when I run 'make' in my very simple port (just the script and
 * the man file, no sub-dir, no makefile, no configure, no patches
 * directory) the "patch" and "configure" targets are still called. My
 * reading of bsd.port.mk seems to say that if there is no patches
 * directory the patch target shouldn't be called at all. I'm not sure
 * about the configure target, but it would be nice if it weren't called
 * when not needed as well. 

That will move the knowledge of what "configure" and "patch" does
outside the respective targets.  Our macros are modular by design, and
maybe it takes a couple milliseconds too long calling the targets and
not doing anything afterwards but it saves a lot of time maintaining
bsd.port.mk.
