from a quick look:

tomatoes:
- try to avoid custom variables (_pkgdata). It is not needed and it
only appears once.
- license is an array
- you can use install -Dm755 to install the executable instead of
mkdir -p and install (not that what you did is wrong, it's just
easier)

brlcad:
- You can use 'install -Dm' as above

for future reference, you can use $srcdir and $pkgdir instead of
$startdir/src and $startdir/pkg (of course both work equally well so
you can use whatever you like)
