It finds the copies at the site listed in the port's Makefile right
after the MASTER_SITE_GNU; if you do something like:

make fetch MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=ftp://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/ghost/gnu/gs652/

..it should fetch the files just fine.

Oh, and BTW, it's already in the pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/ directory
on at least ftp.de.FreeBSD.org, so you could fetch it from the nearest
FreeBSD FTP mirror.

G'luck,
Peter
