Sort of..but it also lists options that are only legal within specific
port makefiles (like USE_*).
Post your make.conf and I'll probably be able to tell you what's wrong.

OK, my problem doesn't seem to be exactly the same. My machine hangs, and
when I check it the console screen is filled with the message, "swap-pager:
indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 26650, size: 4096" and at that
point the only thing I can do is a hard reboot -- it's not reacting to
input at all.
My /etc/make.conf in its entirety is
# added by use.perl 2006-01-18 08:04:37
PERL_VER=5.8.7
PERL_VERSION=5.8.7
I was surprised to find there is no /etc/defaults/make.conf any more --
that may have something to do with it. I haven't been paying very close
attention until now.
