The src.conf is not even mentioned here - it should be added as a new paragraph like the one for /etc/make.conf there, clearly stating its purpose. The old text mentions make.conf - with option that was renamed and moved to rc.conf, like e.g. NO_PROFILE to WITHOUT_PROFILE - or with option that is part of porter's handbook http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/install.html which references that should be removed from that paragraph: 25.7.3 Check /etc/make.conf .. A typical user will probably want to copy and uncomment the NO_PROFILE line found in /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf to /etc/make.conf. Examine the other definitions, like NOPORTDOCS, and decide if they are relevant to you. I would even suggest to remove the paragraph "25.7.3 Check /etc/make.conf" as it is out-of-date.
