Thanks for sharing it! It seems like your Makefile is better crafted 
than mine. Personally, I think that avoiding GitHub when possible is a 
good idea. In the future, there's a chance that GitHub could remove the 
repository against the developers' will, leaving only the server hosting 
the web page as the source for the code.

I was able to avoid this issue by adding the following configuration to 
CMake:

-DMANUAL_SUBMODULES=1

On the other hand, I think there is no need to go to the trouble of 
patching the Makefile to make it compatible with OpenBSD's 
implementation of make(1). Unfortunately, nowadays it is impossible to 
completely avoid the GNU development tools, for example, even if you 
manage to avoid GNU make (gmake), this port will still use the GNU 
portable assembler as(1), which is included in the base system.

I don't think it is necessary for the end user to have pre-compiled 
binaries for testing. Yes, I am interested, all help is welcome.
