And it is documented:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/ports.html#Q12.6.3.

12.6.3. Are there any other files I am not allowed to touch?

Any file directly under ports/, or any file under a subdirectory that
starts with an uppercase letter (Mk/, Tools/, etc.). In particular,
the ports management team is very protective of ports/Mk/bsd.port*.mk
so do not commit changes to those files unless you want to face his
wra(i)th.
