You didn't answer my question:

.if exists(/bin/csh)
CSH?=	/bin/csh
.else
CSH?=	# What goes here?
.endif

And I'm aware it can be dropped using a knob. But I don't think port
maintainers should be expected to support anything other than a full
base system. This port needs csh, so it will fail if you don't have
csh.

Ok, great. But you are still basically saying that certain base system
utilities should be off limits because you have chosen to remove them
from your system.
