dist_subdir should be set to gmsh so that the same distfile does not need to be downloaded multiple times.

Most of the port, from adding dependencies through the end of the portfile, should be in an "if {${name} != ${subport}}" block, otherwise the stub port will fail.

Dependencies should be added to, not overwritten.

Instead of 'system "cd ${...} && ..."' use 'system -W ... "..."'

Watch your whitespace; I see a mix of tabs and spaces, while the modeline claims you're only using spaces.
