Mk/bsd.openssl.mk optimization

Dear maintainer,

I have noticed that most time of 'make index' on my system takes a grep for libssl.
The following is done while 'make index' was running.

$ ps axww | grep libssl
23119  p1  IN+    0:00,00 sh -c grep -l -r "^lib/libssl.so." "/var/db/pkg" |  while read contents; do  sslprefix=`grep "^@cwd " "${contents}" | /usr/bin/head -n 1`;  if test "${sslprefix}" = "@cwd /usr/local" ; then  echo "${contents}"; break; fi; done
23124  p1  DN+    0:00,84 grep -l -r ^lib/libssl.so. /var/db/pkg
23125  p1  IN+    0:00,00 sh -c grep -l -r "^lib/libssl.so." "/var/db/pkg" |  while read contents; do  sslprefix=`grep "^@cwd " "${contents}" | /usr/bin/head -n 1`;  if test "${sslprefix}" = "@cwd /usr/local" ; then  echo "${contents}"; break; fi; done
24555  p1  IN+    0:00,00 sh -c grep -l -r "^lib/libssl.so." "/var/db/pkg" |  while read contents; do  sslprefix=`grep "^@cwd " "${contents}" | /usr/bin/head -n 1`;  if test "${sslprefix}" = "@cwd /usr/local" ; then  echo "${contents}"; break; fi; done
24556  p1  DN+    0:00,41 grep -l -r ^lib/libssl.so. /var/db/pkg
24557  p1  IN+    0:00,00 sh -c grep -l -r "^lib/libssl.so." "/var/db/pkg" |  while read contents; do  sslprefix=`grep "^@cwd " "${contents}" | /usr/bin/head -n 1`;  if test "${sslprefix}" = "@cwd /usr/local" ; then  echo "${contents}"; break; fi; done

So I looked through some Mk stuff, and tryed to optimize it. Since I do not
know any magic of bsd.*.mk, I did just a simple test. And with the below shown
patch the time is only 1500 s, while with the original version the time is more
than 15000 s. I guess the time depens very much on number of installed ports,
I have about 1300.

The resulting INDEX* files are identical.

I should confess I do not understand how my patch works. I expected to see a 
file /usr/ports/.openssl_installed or /tmp/index_something/.openssl_installed
or similar, but could not see it... But I hope this patch will inspire you 
to do something really working.
