The right way is either/or:

a) to do the != assignment in bsd.port.subdir.mk and pass it in to the 
child make environment.  Actually the other != assignments also look 
like they should be fixed too, since they'll also be eating up your CPU 
time.

b) Try to reduce the number of external commands being invoked by doing 
it in shell or make instead (at least partially).

See the recent commits I did to the Mk files for more specifics.
