This is not really MIT, since there is additional text:

 ---8<---
 * The text above constitutes the entire PortAudio license; however, 
 * the PortAudio community also makes the following non-binding
 * requests:
 *
 * Any person wishing to distribute modifications to the Software is
 * requested to send the modifications to the original developer so that
 * they can be incorporated into the canonical version. It is also 
 * requested that these non-binding requests be included along with the 
 * license above.
 ---8<---

So I'd say:
    PORTAUDIO_LICENSE = portaudio license (MIT-like plus special clause)

(which by the way makes it non-free software.)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
