Thanks again for the help with that problem... however, I've run into it
again, it would seem, and this time, deleting the distfiles doesn't seem
to work...

The package is print/ghostscript-gnu, and the files it had checksum
mismatches on are:

gdevcd8.tar.gz 
hpdj-2.6.tar.gz
hpijs-1.0.2.tar.gz
gdevdj9.c.gz (which appears to have two MD5 entries in
/usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gnu/distfiles)

When I delete these files (or even, all of the files in
/usr/ports/distfiles/ghostscript), and do a make again, it tries
downloading them all, but seems to fail, for each file, around ten
times, before eventually getting the file from the last place --
everywhere else shows it not accessible, not available, permission
denied, file length unknown, or whatever...

Interestingly, I just tried again, deleting all four files, and it seems
that this time, it got the first one ok and the checksum was fine. The
other three appear to have been downloaded, but their checksums are
still wrong, so I'm deleting them and trying again. Manually going to
the URLs listed also shows that there is no such file (for some of the
URLs)...

Any help here -- is this a problem that others are presently
experiencing, or is it just me? Any other information that would be
useful? :)
