After OPTIONS= but before you check WITH_*.

USE_GNOME will be okay.  USE_OPENSSL would not work, though.

Right.  You cannot include bsd.port.pre.mk after you check the WITH_*
stuff or OPTIONS will have no effect.

The USE_GNOME thing will work, but you may have to hack in the OpenSSL
dependency.  It would be nice if bsd.openssl.mk could be made to work
before and after bsd.port.pre.mk (e.g. maybe Dirk could add a
WANT_OPENSSL option like we do for GNOME).
