patch for jstrack-3.3.4

- Fix BROKEN

Upstream changed the distfiles without bumping port version for removing some
old data from the distfiles. 

Snippet from my mail with the author:
> Did you recently change the distfile without bumping version number? I
> will fix it but prior to that I need to know the proper reason.

Yes.  I don't remember exactly what it was, but it was a simple issue
with the archive file itself.  So I fixed that.  I definitely know
there were no changes to JStrack---I always change the version number
if I add a patch or add new features.

As for the "proper reason", if I see a need to patch something in the
distribution, say, add storm data that I'd forgotten to add previously,
move storm data from storms to storms/old/YEAR/..., etc., I do it.  I
don't change the version number unless there's a change to JStrack's
code (which obviously includes the filters for NHC data).  If it's
2014, and I see that there is 2013 code in the storms directory in the
dist file, I fix that.  And so on.....  Those are more than enough of
a "proper reason" for me.  :-)
