 Looking at it more closely, I see the Makefile target `install-check-
 writable` is failing, and this target wants to ensure that the directory
 /opt/local/share/grass78 either does not exist, or does exist and is
 writable. On our build systems the directory does not exist which
 satisfies the check. What about on your system? Does the directory exist,
 and if so what are its permissions and ownership? Find out with `ls -ld
 /opt/local/share/grass78`

 Actually, my mistake: the grass7 port is not distributable, so you can't
 get a binary from us regardless what variants you use.
