Firstly, the ports system should try to restart an existing download,
I do this all the time. Secondly, even if a partial file cannot be
completed, the port should not carry on building because the distfile
will fail its MD5/SHA256 checksums.

Either there is a bug here, or you have done something odd. Do you have
NO_CHECKSUM set?
