SUBDIR_CHANGE provides
1) A top level switch which enables/disables the subdir{add|drop} extensions
2) Specifies a directory to define the context for this particular build 
variant.

IMHO, the concept needs to be used more.

make.conf is a GLOBAL definition of parameters and like /usr/include should 
apply ONLY to the host system. It should not be used to control builds of 
alternate systems.

Using a bunch of command line flags is extremely awkward and eventually leads 
to namespace conflict problems.
