Really what happened is that the distfile moved, and instead of the distfile, Lucky Green is getting an HTML message that says "the distfile moved". Unfortunately, HTML doesn't look much like a tarball, and so tar(1) is getting rather confused. :-( cvsup-ing a new ports collection should fix the problem.
