Michael,

Whether considered good form or not I can't say, but it's fine to use
USE_JAVA this way. From bsd.java.mk:

132 .       if defined(USE_JAVA)
133
134 .               if !defined(JAVA_VERSION) &&
empty(USE_JAVA:C/[0-9]*[\.]*[0-9]*[+]*//)
135 JAVA_VERSION=${USE_JAVA}
136 .               endif

Best,
Angelo
