>Description:

I noticed that one of my ports, namely astro/xearth, had trouble getting
the distfiles from ftp.eu.net, which is in the current bsd.port.mk
MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB definition. I removed it, and upon finding that there
was only one left, went to research some more. I found several at ftp.x.org,
then added them to bsd.port.mk and here's the patch...

Ports that use XCONTRIB will benefit from having additional sites to
download from, especially if the primary (crl.dec.com) is backlogged.

>How-To-Repeat:

Apply the patch below to bsd.port.mk.
