New Revision: 266416
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/266416

Log:
  Document some user-settable make variables in ports.7
  
  This is not a comprehensive list, as the variables themselves are spread
  out over multiple files, but it is a start.
  
  Add a section to make.conf noting that variables may be set there that
  affect ports builds, but refer to ports.7 and elsewhere for the actual
  listing; any listing in make.conf.5 would likely become out of date
  fairly quickly.
