Yes, this is a fine idea.  Please consider the "debug" option globally 
allocated and go ahead and start using it in your packages.  We'll leave 
it up to the individual package maintainers to figure out how to add 
support for the debug option if they want.  There should probably be 
some other stuff triggered by this in bsd.pkg.mk, e.g. "debug" triggers 
stripping and such to not occur, but we'll set that aside for another day.
