patch-Makefile does nothing

: COMMENT=	packet converter for sniffing IEEE 802.15.4
: 
: V=		1.3
: GH_ACCOUNT =	homewsn
: GH_PROJECT =	whsniff
: GH_TAGNAME =	v${V}
: DISTNAME=	whsniff-${V}

the above block can be replaced with

GH_ACCOUNT=	homewsn
GH_PROJECT=	whsniff
GH_TAGNAME=	v1.3

: LIB_DEPENDS =	devel/libusb1
: 
: MAKE_FLAGS=	CFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" \
: 		LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
: 
: FAKE_FLAGS +=	PREFIX=${DESTDIR}${PREFIX}
: 
: NO_TEST =	Yes
: USE_GMAKE=	Yes

mix of "=" / " = " and a " += " which isn't adding to anything,

.....

here's one way to clean those up: ok with that, or similar.
