For ports that use the OPTIONS framework (ones that would create such a file you mentioned and have the blue screen) do not edit those files manually. Simply run:
# make config
Then select the options you want and they will be saved.

It doesn't look like the aterm port uses the OPTIONS framework, so you will have to supply build options yourself. Look through the Makefile and supply the options in the make command. E.g.:
# make WITH_MENUBAR=yes install clean

In short, bsdforums fell victim to massive spamming due to an inattentive administrator and has been abandoned by all of the regular members. This forum was formed as its replacement and is where most bsdforums regulars have migrated.
