The reason is that portupgrade -N gnome2-lite only builds  gnome2-lite, and 
yelp gets built by the ports system as a side effect.  Once the ports are in 
the the package database, portupgrade will handle the MAKE_ARGS correctly.

I do this kind of thing with entries in make.conf like this:

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/www/linuxpluginwrapper}
WITH_PLUGINS=yes
.endif
