Diff below should solve this; it works for me here with codeberg ports.
The issue is that bsd.port.mk checks for DISTNAME before _DT_WRKDIST and
then sets the WRKDIST based on that. There should be no change other
than for codeberg projects, as dist-tuple.port.mk sets

_DT_WRKDIST ?= ${WRKDIR}/${_distname}

for !codeberg.
