With RUNTIME_DEP_PKGS. See
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/wiki/GAR%20Variable%20Reference.

With a line like this:

DISTFILES += $(call admfiles,CSWpkgutil,prototype preremove postinstall)

You provide the scripts in for example files/CSWpkgutil.preremove. See
http://gar.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gar/csw/mgar/pkg/pkgutil/trunk/.
The above example defines a static prototype as well as preremove and
postinstall, you should normally always use a dynamic prototype.

You can write your own install scripts directly in the Makefile,
easiest would be to look at other Makefiles, here's one:
