I will say, though -- look at all the shenanigans in 

graphics/freeimage/Portfile

pretty much all of which would not be needed if portconfigure did poplulate the 
configure.NNflags 

it has almost completely reduplicated the portconfigure.tcl  logic.

That's more or less what every non-autotools non-cmake port would have to do to 
get full compliance with isysroot, syslibroot, etc etc etc.
