Is it possible to 'pass in' environment variables to the 'port
install' command?
Or is the only way to pass something like CFLAGS to macports is
through a portfile?
For example... I would like to
$sudo port install pan2 CFLAGS="-isysroot /Developers/SDKs/
MacOSX10.4u.sdk"
thoughts?

If your building a Portfile here is a piece of the postfix Portfile:
variant ldap description "add ldap support via openldap" {
depends_lib-append port:openldap
set CCARGS [concat ${CCARGS} -DHAS_LDAP]
set AUXLIBS [concat ${AUXLIBS} -lldap -llber]
}
`set' does not affect the environment at all, these are just local Tcl
variables.
If you need special variables in the environment for building, specify
configure.env (and build.env) in the Portfile. But also note there are
predefined options to set CFLAGS, LDFLAGS and others, namely
configure.cflags, configure.ldflags, etc. They should be preferred
over
manipulating configure.env.
They are explained in the guide:
