I was thinking the same re/ wildcard; on the other hand, I always saw
hints like this for setting certain values in make.conf based on the
ports' name, liek for example:

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/category/port}
USE_GCC=any
.endif

those examples never used the * (i.e. /category/port/* ); that's why
until today I was thinking that the expresion means already "if
/category/port is part of current dir", perhaps I have to read a make
manual for this again...

thanks for your feedback in any case
