 * I am continually compiling my ports collection as folks upgrade the
 * versions of packages, and some ports have _very_ unobvious tarball
 * names, and some have more than one. Keeping track of which one(s)
 * is/are current is a pain, so I wasted 2 minutes of my life and came
 * up with the following idea; Why not "wc -c" all the relevant
 * original distribution files for each port at "make makesum" time
 * and put those into a file in files/ (I chose "list")?

Why can't you do this using files/md5?
