The bit for me which was confusing is that the PORTS_MODULES reference, as 
Gregory correctly pointed out, is in the man page for make.conf and not 
src.conf. So one would think what the man page referenced would go into the 
file that pertaining to that manpage.

The reason I've always had things like KERNCONF=KERNCONF1 GENERIC and 
PORTS_MODULES in src.conf is because I figured "if it gets built when base gets 
built then it must go in src.conf". So when Gregory mentioned it goes in 
make.conf, I thought perhaps I was doing it all wrong, or in an outdated way. I 
was surprised finding that in these contexts it didn't matter as long as one 
remembers as you say += ?= in make.conf
