No. You only need to use --enforce-variants when you want to add or
remove a variant on a non-outdated port. So unless you're specifying
variants on the command line (or changed variants.conf), there's no
point, and you'll just waste cycles rebuilding ports that had platform
variants (removed in 1.9) like +darwin when you installed them. The end
result won't actually be any different.
