Uhm, please ignore what I wrote.  I forgot about "?=" syntax
in make.conf ...  In that case it works fine, of course.

So, it really should be sufficient to move the compatibility
section (the one that looks at WITH_* / WITHOUT_*) to the
end of bsd.options.mk, after the section that loads the
options file from $PORTS_DBDIR.  Then the desired behaviour
should be back.

Best regards
