 BINGO!!!
 
 I know exactly what's happening and anybody can reproduce this.
 
 This works:
 ======================
 A) bmake clean
 B) bmake wrapper
 C) check ${WRKDIR}/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc  (it's good)
 
 
 This doesn't work
 ======================
 A) bmake clean
 B) bmake patch
 C) bmake wrapper
 D) check ${WRKDIR}/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc  (BAD, version undefined)
 
 
 The variable BUILTIN_PKG.openssl is cached, but BUILTIN_VERSION.openssl
 is not.
 
 I would love to hear somebody spin this as a feature and not a
 straight-up bug.  Executing individual make targets is a legitimate user
 action.
 
 Now that the anomaly is understood well, can we discuss how to fix this now?
