*DEBUG knob has different meaning from port to port and often not just -g
adding, but turns on internal port debugging output/checks.
It means that it should be turned on/off separately on per port basis.
I.e. WITH_<portname>_DEBUG.
WITH_<portname>_* style options also allows to add them all into
/etc/make.conf without creating name conflicts between the ports.
