I am trying to build print/ghostscript-esp without CUPS (ehoch is
currently marked as insecure) but it tries to build anyway.  I made the
change indicated below to see what was going on.  Here is what it
outputs:

===> Extracting for ghostscript-esp-8.15.1nb6
1 x11
2 cups x11

As you can see I have set the proper variable but what comes out
of ../../mk/bsd.options.mk still has the cups option enabled.  And I do
know that ghostscript-esp is deprecated and I am installing ghostscript
anyway but this seems to indicate a deeper problem in the system.
