ports tree build ignores /etc/make.conf

	I have:

# uname -srm
FreeBSD 6.4-STABLE alpha
#

	In /etc/make.conf I have

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/lang/gcc*}
NOT_FOR_ARCHS=
.endif

	However, I get:

# cd /usr/ports/lang/gcc43
# make
===>  gcc-4.3.3_20090101 does not run on alpha ia64, while you are running alpha.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/gcc43.
# 

	So it seems make ignores NOT_FOR_ARCHS= setting.
When I add this to the gcc43/Makefile directly, build
goes ahead.

	What's the problem?

	many thanks
	anton
