It would be even nicer to have that functionality work in /etc/make.conf or the ports build system instead of the imprecise "WITHOUT_3DNOW='yo'" trick I rely on.  It would also
be nice to specify certain "heirarchys" of kernel modules that
you don't want built in make.conf or your config file.  Not that
 I'm suggesting that pkgtools should be imported into FreeBSD.  Yech!
