Are you seeing any particular problem on any particular port?

wxs at rst wxs % cat Makefile 
all:
.if defined(NOPORTDOCS)
	@echo "defined"
.else
	@echo "not defined"
.endif
wxs at rst wxs % make
not defined
wxs at rst wxs % make -DNOPORTDOCS
defined
wxs at rst wxs % 

It works exactly how it should.
