That works with FreeBSD too, except the file is called /etc/make.conf

All the options framework does is write a small Makefile containing the
per-port options.  There's nothing to stop you generating those settings
by some other means, nor is there anything to stop you adding the result
into /etc/make.conf rather than the separate Makefiles under
/var/db/ports.  You'll need to conditionalise setting the options on the
value of ${.CURDIR} like this:

=2Eif ${.CURDIR:M*/databases/mysql*}
WITH_CHARSET=3D           utf8
WITH_XCHARSET=3D          none
WITH_COLLATION=3D         utf8_unicode_ci
WITH_OPENSSL=3D           yes
WITHOUT_YASSL=3D          yes
BUILD_OPTIMIZED=3D        yes
WITH_INNODB=3D            yes
WITH_ARCHIVE=3D           yes
WITH_FEDERATED=3D         yes
#WITH_NDB=3D              yes
WITH_CSV=3D               yes
=2Eendif

If you do this, you'll need to set BATCH in the make environment to
suppress the OPTIONS dialogues, and remove anything conflicting from
/var/db/ports.

	Cheers,
