In general,

* WITH(OUT)?_* are user variables aka /etc/make.conf
* USE_*        are port Makefile only variables for maintainers
* WANT_*       is a little nebulous atm

Also, see ports/Mk/KNOBS for a almost full list of WITH/WITHOUT

to do what you want,

APACHE_PORT=www/apache20 in /etc/make.conf will do it.

Work like you don't need the money,
love like you'll never get hurt,
and dance like nobody's watching.
