Time for a general reminder, I guess.

- Do not hardwire CC and CXX.  People may want to build with an
  alternative compiler.

- Do not hardwire CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.  Makefiles can of course add to
  those variables, in particular -D, -I, -L, but they must no overwrite
  them.

- Do not hardwire "/usr/local" and "/usr/X11R6".  Refer to PREFIX
  for the prefix the current port will install into, LOCALBASE for
  the prefix of previously installed ports, and X11BASE for the X11
  prefix.

If those variables aren't picked up automatically by a configure
script, you can pass them on for the build by way of MAKE_ENV (some
of them are already there) or more forcefully MAKE_FLAGS.
