Ports is locked for release engineering now, but here are a
few things to work on:

With a few rare exceptions (e.g. commonly used libraries) we
don't do strcpy->strlcpy in ports patches any more, it makes it
difficult to reliably update, so please work with upstream on
getting these committed (I imagine they will need a strlcpy
wrapper for OS where it's not available natively)

I would remove the details about the programming language
from COMMENT as it's not really relevant here, also make the
whitespace more consistent (you mostly have 'FOO=bar' but
one 'FOO = bar'), 

The WRKDIST line should be removed as it's set to the default

The license comment also needs to have the version number
recorded (but it's not clear which applies as the source code
files do not contain clear copyright notices with license
details, there is just a bunch of files some with copyright
with no license details, and a COPYING file present in the
tar.gz, so this is something upstream would need to tidy).
