I want the chosen web server's name to install the corresponding sample 
config file to PKG_SYSCONFDIR.

That doesn't help... I ended up setting a make variable in each of the 
alternatives in options.mk. Works, but <bsd.options.mk> has the 
information and could make it available.

On the upside, I can use PKG_OPTIONS_GROUP.{group name} for the list of 
web servers.

Cheerio,
