default OPTIONS aren't the default when BATCH is set

[Arjan van Leeuwen]

If I define the BATCH environment variable, I'd expect ports to choose their 
default values for the OPTIONS they might have. 

However, it seems like all options are simply set to 'off', thereby making 
many of the ports that I upgraded lately unusable.

For example, my own graphics/digikamplugins port builds nothing if all its 
options are off.

The multimedia/kdemultimedia3 package builds without the default mpeglib 
package, which can give unexpected results when trying to run other KDE 
programs that depend on this functionality.

Apart from being a nuisance for me when updating, does this also mean that 
packages built on by the FreeBSD package cluster are also built without there 
default options? This will give very strange results when installing from 
packages.

Best regards,

Arjan
