If you do that, Murphy's Law says the build will halt about two minutes
after you leave the building... ;-)

This also applies for installing from ports. I've learned the hard way to
always run make config-recursive before running make install clean and
leaving while ports installs large programs with many dependencies.

Exactly, and fetch-recursive is nice, too.

Cheers.
