This is exaclty what I was looking for. But implemnting that will mean
modifying existing package that do it, so I will live it to someone more
comfortable with pkgsrc-wide commits

For now I think I can just add a check on pkg_info -Q PKG_OPTIONS in the
package I'm building. That should do it, and I will convert it to the
new framework if it appears some day.
