a compelling argument could be that wake(8) is BSD licensed while wol
found in ports/net/wol is GPL licensed and brings in a whole lot of a

actually, to send out Wake on LAN package, a small BSD licensed
command like wake(8) is sufficient. it is much smaller an cleaner
code.
Then, add the wake program to ports.
My opinion is that this better be kept in ports.
I find it a rather basic operation to be able to wake up remote
systems from a central place, so I think base is the right place for
this. Wak-on-LAN as become part of our everydays IT infrastructure,
as much as we support it in BIOSes and ifconfig's, we should also
support waking up systems.
