I spent a bit of time today trying to figure out why the above doesn't work. Eventually it occured to me to grep /usr/src to see if the variable even existed. It turns out it doesn't, however __MAKE_CONF does exist (that's with *two* leading underscores). Hopefully this will clear things up a bit in case anyone else is trying it.
