As stated above, make.conf applies to building things in /usr/src
/usr/ports and /usr/doc. Anything you can control with environment
variables when building in those dirs can be added to make.conf.
If you're looking for general settings that can be changed in ports
for example, you'll find info in the ports(7) man
page. Additionally, individual ports my have additional settings.
