I'm confused (yeah, I know, nothing new about that). From
ports/Mk/bsd.port.options.mk:

# .include "bsd.port.options.mk"
# <deal with user options>
# .include "bsd.port.pre.mk"
# <other work, including adjusting dependencies>
# .include "bsd.port.post.mk"
However the ports I've looked at so far all do:
OPTIONS= blah
.include <bsd.port.options.mk>
blah
.include <bsd.port.mk>
EOF
I assume that this method works, since it seems like so many ports use it.
Should the notes in options.mk be updated?
Yes, it should be updated. See examples "5.8 Simple use of OPTIONS" and
"5.9 Old style use of OPTIONS" in the Porter's Handbook:
