--- Comment #1 from Neal Nelson <ports at nicandneal.net> ---
The reason that Nimble is a separate port is because the build process included
in the Nim distribution fetches the source from git independently. I'm not sure
that it's allowed to bypass the port distribution fetching process like this.
Also it would require an added build dependency on git which your patch does
not include.

The source for nimgrep and nimsuggest are included in the Nim distribution, so
it would be possible to build them with the lang/nim port, but it would be
necessary to patch koch.nim in order to not build nimble. This is just the
removal of the call to buildNimble at the end of buildTools I think.
