Unless the behaviour of portupgrade has changed recently, this is a bad
idea. The options in pkgtools.conf only apply to ports that portupgrade
builds directly. During an initial  installation most of the ports get
built as missing dependencies, so miss the options set in pkgtools.conf.

A better way is to set the options in make.conf either directly or by
using sysutils/portconf.
