I overlooked that I made the Makefile with the uncommitted patch for
DIST_TUPLE WRKDIST in my tree [1], so the port Makefile is missing a
WRKDIST entry. I've added this so that it works for anyone testing
simutrans.

Also if someone reads this who can run a bulk build with the
diff from [1], this would help to check before getting an okay for the
DIST_TUPLE enhancement to set WRKDIST...
