Log Message:
-----------

 *) A port(1) action is also optional, so marking it as so.
 *) The -F flag processes a command file containing batch commands, not batch files specified via batch files.
 *) Making it clearer that passing a key=value pair on the command line overrides that listed on the Portfile
for <port>, if any.
