Thanks. Your Makefile mostly looks fine. I've investigated your
problem - it's due to a combination of bsd.port.mk doing something
unusual which Email::Obfuscate's Makefile.PL isn't intelligent enough
to deal with.

You don't need to do this. Instead:
.include <bsd.port.mk>
As for the problem, line 14 of Email::Obfuscate's Makefile.PL calls:
&Makefile->write if lc($0) eq 'makefile.pl';
In line 3112 of bsd.port.mk we see:
.if defined(PERL_CONFIGURE)
@cd ${CONFIGURE_WRKSRC} && \
${SETENV} ${CONFIGURE_ENV} \
${PERL5} ./${CONFIGURE_SCRIPT} ${CONFIGURE_ARGS}
So Makefile.PL (${CONFIGURE_SCRIPT}) is called with a trailing './',
causing lc($0) to match './makefile.pl' as opposed to 'makefile.pl'.
You will need to patch Email::Obfuscate to understand how it gets
called more intelligently, and arguably bsd.port.mk should call
Makefile.PL in its more typical 'Makefile.PL' guise instead of
'./Makefile.PL'.
