Option C would be the best, as the port depends on a database (MySQL,
PostgreSQL or SQLite).

I believe the following would work with the new options framework:

OPTIONS_MULTI=		DATABASE
OPTIONS_MULTI_DATABASE=	MYSQL PGSQL SQLITE

OPTIONS_DEFAULT=		SQLITE

.include <bsd.port.options.mk>

.if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MMYSQL}
RUN_DEPENDS+=	${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}MySQLdb>=1.2.2:${PORTSDIR}/databases/py-MySQLdb
.endif

.if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MPGSQL}
RUN_DEPENDS+=	${PYTHON_SITELIBDIR}/psycopg2/_psycopg.so:${PORTSDIR}/databases/py-psycopg2
.endif
.if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MSQLITE}
RUN_DEPENDS+=	${PYTHON_SITELIBDIR}/_sqlite3.so:${PORTSDIR}/databases/py-sqlite3
.endif
:
:
.include <bsd.port.mk>
