Building UNSTRIPPED binaries in ports?

A quick perusal of /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk shows this:

# WITH_DEBUG            - If set, debugging flags are added to CFLAGS and the
#                         binaries don't get stripped by INSTALL_PROGRAM.
#                         Besides, individual ports might add their specific
#                         to produce binaries for debugging purposes.
#                         You can override the debug flags that are passed to
#                         the compiler by setting DEBUG_FLAGS. It is set to
#                         "-g" at default.

so try adding WITH_DEBUG...
