Revision 1.16 of the port Makefile doesn't build a growisofs executable.

I am not a great BSD make hacker, but the makefile that comes with the
port tries to build more than one program from the same directory and
somehow fails.

If we don't have the ability to reorganize things within the distfile
(because, e.g. the creator of dvd+rw-tools distfile does not target just
FreeBSD), using gmake seems to be the way to go.
