Yes, we need to document this better.

There are currently at least three+ places build options are documented:

make.conf(5)
examples/etc/make.conf
various Makefiles

...and none of them are complete.

A new source of information is the output of my build_options survey:

	http://phk.freebsd.dk/misc/build_options/

(still in progress, there are ~200 options to test in total and they
take about 1 hour each.)

Anyone who has time to try to improve the documentation based on
the above information is more than welcome.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
