I've been having the same (or a similar problem).  Fetching the distfile =
for
a port will hang.  I poked some more at this and found that all the =
sites
fetch is hanging on successfully negotiate the TCP connection then go =
dead
without closing the connection.  My workaround has been to edit the =
Makefile
and remove the offending site from MASTER_SITES or manually fetch from
ftp.freebsd.org.
