In the past, there has been such a mechanism which I've been
using for things like configuring mplayer. Maybe you can also
try this in your case?

Go into the port's directory and create a file Makefile.local.
In this file, you can define the options (which you can get
their names from the port's Makefile). The options usually
have the form of WITH_SOMETHING=yes.

Downside: When you update your ports tree, the file will be
removed, so keep a backup!

That should be possible to conclude from the original Makefile.

You can use "make missing" to find out which those are, and also
pipe that command's output to "pkg install -y".

Note that the list of dependencies might change _after_ you have
changed options. Also see "make config-recursive" to find out if
dependent ports have other options you might want to change.

With portmaster, you can use the -P and -PP options to _require_
the use of binary packages (as long as they are available). See
"man portmaster" for details.
