The problem with using make.conf is that it pollutes all uses of make, whereas src.conf just pollutes compilation of the source tree.

Here’s what I used: https://github.com/yaneurabeya/scratch/blob/master/bayonetta/etc/src.conf-local#L39 — I used some additional magic because of the reasons I mentioned in my previous email. Now, I just set KERNCONF= GENERIC GENERIC-NODEBUG (but I should use `?=` if I cared about running make universe on my VM on my laptop — heh).
