I was of the opinion, and I could be wrong, that setting 'BATCH=yes'
simply stopped the build process from attempting to create an options
file; however, it would use an existing one if it was present. Perhaps
someone with more intimate knowledge of this would care to comment. I
say this because I have used the BATCH technique once I had all of my
ports configured the way I wanted. Subsequent updates always appeared to
use any existing configuration files.
