That's the point: it looked as though I had to test both PKG_OPTIONS.libsoup
and PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS to find out whether gssapi is set.

Now I see that PKG_OPTIONS is the one to test. (Right?)

/etc/mk.conf:
PKG_OPTIONS.libsoup=gssapi 
quark# make show-var VARNAME=PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS

quark# make show-var VARNAME=PKG_OPTIONS
gssapi
quark# make show-var VARNAME=PKG_OPTIONS.libsoup
gssapi

Cheers,
