>Description:

The recent round of changes to bsd.port.mk introduced a regression on
4.X.  Namely, PR 86310, which was [1] in the bsd.port.mk 1.518, uses
make -C.  And it looks like make -C is buggy on 4.X systems:

# cd /usr/ports/devel/p5-Test-Base
# make -C /usr/ports/lang/perl5 -V _DEPEND_DIRS
"Makefile", line 47: Could not find Makefile.man
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

This leads to this message being shown repeatedly for any p5 port build.
I would imaging that any dependant port that includes anything in its
Makefile from its own directory will lead to similar results.

I am not sure whether this behavior breaks anything, hence I assigned
low priority to this PR.  I am sure Mikhail will be able to tell
right away whether it is just an annoyance or a true regression.

>How-To-Repeat:

See above.

>Fix:

Possibly change make -C $$d instances to ( cd $$d ; make ) ?
