You can use something like this in make.conf:

# insert your own leet matching pattern here
CURRENT_PORT=${.CURDIR:C/.*ports\///}

.if ${CURRENT_PORT} == "category/name"
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --some-option
# you can also change things like CFLAGS here.
.endif


Some ports set CONFIGURE_ARGS explicitly, making the above not work. To work 
around this, set CONFIGURE_ARGS on the make command line. You can then add it 
to the MAKE_ARGS list in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf to make it work when 
upgrading using portupgrade.
