Where do you need this?
We want to move towards these varaibles having boolean meanings.
USA_RESIDENT is a special case: you are forced to set it because it has
legal implications - FreeBSD can prove that the sysadmin made a certain
claim regarding the cypto code in the case of legal problem.
Also, in the ports tree the values are 'yes' and 'no', not 'YES' and
'NO' (which are used in the base system). Any ports using 'YES' are
going to be caught by the sytle police soon.
