This probably can be done in /usr/ports/dns/bind920.

I have not tested all the details, but if poudriere is set up properly,
it should write some entries to:

/var/db/ports/dns_bind920/options

which can be copied to

/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options/dns_bind920

to be picked up in the next poudriere run.

I have not analysed this in full detail, but I'm not sure man pages
and the rest can easily be seperatly build.

I agree, but this depends on the port and the nitty-gritty details
of the app itself.
