That should work fine.  I've used this trick without problems.

Or if all your different package sets should use the same options, then
don't have any /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/{$set}-options directories,
but only a /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options directory.

I also linked /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options to /var/db/options when
I first started using poudriere.  I thought I'd want to build the
occasional port outside of poudriere at the time, and wanted to keep the
same options if I did.  Turns out that I never really need to do that
now, but it does have one small benefit.  I can just run 'make options'
in my ports tree, and it sets options for the poudriere builds.

	Cheers,
