Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 The variant description is much too verbose.

 There is no reason to increase the port's revision.

 You syntax is correct, but in its present form the port is not designed to
 accommodate variants changing the build args. Note that the destroot.args
 get set to the build.args; that happens before variants are evaluated.

 If I understand you correctly, some software would require mongo-cxx-
 driver compiled without C++11 support, and some software would require
 mongo-cxx-driver compiled with C++11 support. Is that correct? If so, it
 might be better to have a new subport for mongo-cxx-driver–with–C++11, and
 ideally, the developers of mongo-cxx-driver would have their software
 install both, so that the consumer of the library can choose which one to
 use.
