tweaked version attached;

- add a note to COMMENT for people that don't know CW == Morse code
- CATEGORIES for amateur radio related ports is normally comms so use
  that (not sure whether that or audio is best for the port dir)
- more exact license marker
- don't list library deps in BUILD_DEPENDS
- break out deps to one line per dep
- don't use "CONFIGURE_STYLE=none", it is meaningless
- pass in DESTDIR via flags to avoid various patches
- use INSTALL_STRIP rather than hardcoding -s (so that building with
  "make DEBUG=-g" disables stripping)
- drop DESCR paragraph about manpages and www (the URL is included
  directly after in packages, so that should be fairly obvious, and
  manpages are standard anyway
