You can try pkg_micro_src_summary from wip/pkg_summary-utils It parses a
Makefile in a hackish way and fallback to bmake if it cannot parse
Makefile itself. PKGNAME, PKGPATH, COMMENT and many other variables (but
not those defined in mk/* and buildlink3.mk) can efficiently be
retrieved by pkg_micro_src_summary.
