Ports: Can I share the port options in /var/db/ports?

I'm sharing my /usr/ports directory via NFS among several machines. One problem that I have is with port options set in /var/db/ports. Is there a ports environment variable that I could set in /etc/make.conf which would force these to be somewhere in /usr/ports/vindaloo-port-options so that setting options on one machine would carry through to others sharing my build environment?
