 Cool, thanks.

 Are these referenced during a portsupgrade?

Yes.  However, try to avoid conflicts between (a) such options 
and (b) settings in pkgtools.conf.

The options are stored in /var/db/port_name_here/options.
If you do a make rmconfig or rmconfig-recursive before a make
install, then it is deleting the options file, and with a make
install you can happily choose your favorite options again. 
As usual, the manual for ports
# man ports
will list most of the things you can do with ports.
You can take a look at /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk for more information.

Oops, that is
