How can one circumvent these.

ports-mgmt/portconf:

Portconf is a simple framework to set ports options in an
universal way. Knobs set to specific ports are honoured
by portmaster, portupgrade, portmanager and 'make install'.
I prefer using portconf together with ports-mgmt/portsopt to initially get all options that need to be defined for a specific set of ports. To get sure you didn't miss a port you might want to set "BATCH" for all ports - see ports(7) for details.
I'm using portupgrade for upgrades and it comes with an option to hand BATCH over to every port - maybe portmaster provides the same.
