I haven't tried such a port, but maybe you can make a dummy Makefile.
(?) an idea.
You would make your port, switch over to the work directory within the
port, and create an empty Makefile.orig
then create a Makefile that is basically like
all: donothing
donothing:
@echo 'I am here now basically doing nothing'
then create the patchfile, i think it's make makepatch. back in the top
level of your port path. This will cause it to create the bogus Makefile
out of nothing.
Also, there are probably a few ports in the tree that only install
files, does not run make, if you can track those down it would show a
working example.
