Although, as far as I can tell, not explicitly forbidden in the porter's 
handbook, I think that to be highly unlikely in the case of CFLAGS.

The least I'd expect would be some kind notice, if so intrusive a change 
is done deliberately.

If I'd suspect a port fiddling with /etc/make.conf, I'd probably go 
looking for entries carrying a timestamp close to /etc/make.confs in 
/var/db/pkg.  Of course, this largely depends on what happened in 
between the time of actual modification and me noticing, but I think 
that's the first thing I'd do.
