That sounds good. I just bring it up because I saw the dozens of
commits since 0.9.7 that the port users were missing out on. Maybe this
is a moot point now that the pace of development is increasing.

Right. Here's a snippet.
.if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MSBCL}
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-lisp=sbcl
BUILD_DEPENDS+= sbcl:${PORTSDIR}/lang/sbcl
.else
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-lisp=clisp
BUILD_DEPENDS+= clisp:${PORTSDIR}/lang/clisp
.endif

Thanks for all the hard work.
