The purpose of my doing this to all these ports (and ones that I did as I encountered them) was because '--verbose' was added to pre_args a couple months ago, and the --verbose flag increases verbosity the more it is used.  Thus removing it from the port reduces the number of --verbose flags down to 1.

I see that it was moved from pre_args into args in base a few days ago which completely defeats the purpose of this patch, so I need to not only revert this bug go back and revert all the places that I've changed it from -fvi to -fi over the past couple months...

What was the reason for moving it from pre_args to args?  I don't really see that in the commit message.
