Compiling the mysql-server pkg with CFLAGS+=-O3 -pipe in /etc/mk.conf, I
see:

cc -O2 -O3 -pipe -Dunix -O3 -pipe -O3 -pipe -O3 -pipe -Dunix -O3 -pipe -O3
-pipe ...

Wow.  Does that mean it's -O20?  ;)

Seriously speaking, as harmless as this is in practice, it seems that we
aren't cleansing the make enviroment properly (...and that recursive makes
should be *overriding* sub-makes' values for some variables).  And I had
thought that this didn't happen a long time ago....
