The commit log refers to a different problem than John reported. The
commit log refers to the problem of a saved options file that doesn't
have all of the new OPTIONS for a new version of the port.

John was referring to the problem of 'make config' not being called for
ports being installed as dependencies of a port that has OPTIONS.
