I really need to document this in the porting handbook, but since you're
new I don't mind: when you commit a change like this please include a note
explaining what actually changed within the distfile to cause the md5 sum
to change. The best way to do this is to fetch an old copy of the distfile
from ftp.freebsd.org (which only archives them if they pass md5) or
another master site, and run a diff -ruN between the two. Most of the time
it's for trivial changes, but we should be careful.
