The problem you're trying to address is only a consecutive error and
not the real problem.
As I wrote in my first reply:
: Foremost, that Makefile has an .include, and that's where the mess
: (for this use case) happens.
An .include includes the given file at that point (duh), and in this
case that's kde-icons-noia/Makefile.icons, which overwrites your
LICENSE variables (and brings in LICENSE_TEXT). And, as stated before:
that cannot be your intention (and including kde-icons-noia/Makefile.icons
only makes sense in a very limited number of ports if at all). And you
can (and should, in case of doubt or problems) double-check your
variables by running e.g. "make -V LICENSE" in the port's directory
(or "make -C <dir> -V <var>", yadda yadda, make(1), etc).

: cmt: x11-themes/kde-icons-nuovext2$ make -V LICENSE
: theme
That's not LGPL3.
