It's possible to use this feature, but only on -CURRENT and -STABLE
FreeBSD systems newer than certain date. No existing release supports it
- it will be supported in upcoming 6.3 and 7.0.

I would advise not to use it in your port yet. Maybe in two or three
years.

Note that hardcoding /usr/ports to your port breaks the port for users
with nonstandard PORTSDIR.
