To boil it down further: their FreeBSD makefile "make_freebsd.mak" misses the webkit-related targets (make_webkit, $(WEBKIT_LIB), ...) which could simply be copied over from the make_linux.mk, but: to get this right, the port would require some pkg_plist magic depending on the detection of webkit... as it has already been stated, automatic dependencies and build options are a packager's hell.
