>Why not move all MASTER_SITES (including >MASTER_SITE_[LOCAL|KDE|etc] into bsd.locale.mk. While we're at >it, we can also nuke MASTER_SITE_LOCAL. When I wrote this patch I had it reviewed. I had no /etc/make.conf patch at that time and all settings were in the locale.mk however I was advised that all userland tweeking belonds in /etc/make.conf so I added a locale.mk driver from there. Probably best to leave the MASTER_SITES in make.conf unless we're now going to decide that MASTER_SITE_BACKUP is likely to be the default value and only set it for a release, leaving users to use the new configuration mechanism if they want to change it (assuming the port sticks). I guess it's Satoshi's call if he wishes to keep /etc/make.conf as the main or only place for user configuration. I think it's not a bad idea - in the spirit of rc.conf...
