Do not do this.

MacPorts uses the default Make for the platform it's running on (i.e, the 
"make" program), unless a port requests a specific Make using "build.type". 
Xcode 4.6.2 installs GNU Make; I'm not sure if older versions ever did 
otherwise.

    % /usr/bin/xcrun make --version
    GNU Make 3.81

The gmake port already installs the latest release, 3.82.
