As I said, I have for the followin 19 ports (of ~2000) defined special
options, mostly to add a feature which is/was not default, for example
for enable file logging for x11/xterm):

$ ls -C1 /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/*/*
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/devel_gvfs/options

/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/graphics_evince/options

/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/net_wireshark/options
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/security_p5-GSSAPI/options
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/www_node/options
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/www_squid/options
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/x11_kde4/options
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/freebsd-r349041-options/x11_xterm/options

The rest is just default and never gives conflicts.
