It does not.

But guess what, the ports system uses `make' because it uses makefiles.
Hence, it does handle dependency. So, if you say `make install', it will
infer everywthing it needs. So, what you did with `make install', was
build the raw port, and install it.

BTW, don't run ports build as root. configure sudo, set SUDO=sudo in
/etc/mk.conf, and run things as joe-normal-user.
