I don't know how feasible it is to write a target which generates the
plist file. A linux_base port is mostly static over it's lifetime,
whereas the plist generating target (which is also available in
bsd.linux-rpm.mk und supposed to replace the current "hack" we do with
the RPM using ports) was made to help in the writting of "linux
satellite ports".
