Modifies makefile uname system call directive from '-a' to '-o' to allow for
reproducible output

Hello, I am posting this report to further the agenda of reproducible builds
(wiki.freebsd.org/ReproducibleBuilds)

In this particular port, a system call, 'uname -a' is generating
non-deterministic output on some builds with differing timestamps and node
names.

A remedy is attached, changing the directive from -all to --operating-system
allows this port to build in a reproducible fashion.
