My port[1] needs to execute chroot(8) and mount(8) in order to build a binary fit to be run under linux_base-*. Sometimes there's no .rpm or source needs patching.
Looking at bsd.port.mk it has a notion of _SUSEQ targets that are executed within SU_CMD context. However, a port cannot define them because the value may be overriden or ignored by a target already existing in _SEQ. NEED_ROOT seems to an undocumented hack for staging. Can someone suggest a way to force build be performed under root?
