Install some dummy files instead of failing. Something like this:

    PortSystem 1.0
    name foo
    supported_archs noarch
    archive_sites
    distfiles
    use_configure no
    build {}
    destroot {
        system "echo $name is a stub port 
>${destroot}${prefix}/share/doc/${name}/README"
    }
