GraphicsMagick uses:

This ensures that if the user does not specify +q8, +q16 or +q32,
it selects +q8.
The one thing this does not handle is if the user specifically
tries to install "GraphicsMagick -q8"; in this case no variant will
be selected. I've never been entirely comfortable with that.
Perhaps we should indeed be using variant_set instead:
if {![variant_isset q16] && ![variant_isset q32]} {
variant_set q8
}
I'm not certain why we haven't been doing that.
I still don't understand why you set up some of your ports this way
instead of the more straightforward method (have the +q8 configure
args in the default configure args, and have the variants just
remove the +q8 stuff and add their appropriate args).
To me, Portfiles are always clearer if they can avoid using
variant_isset.
I my particular case there is no configure. The author has you
edit .config so I am patching .config and use reinplace.
