>Description:
SourceForge has recently re-organized their download area.

A reference to a file of the form http://prdownload.sourceforget.net/dir/blah.tar.gz now gets you a web page requesting that you select a mirror.  It then appears that either redirection or JavaScript is used to perform the download.

As a result, any port whose makefile uses MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE will be unable to retrieve its files.  The web page that it retrieves instead will fail checksum, and the port install will abort.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/lang/tcl8.3
make install
>Fix:
Edit in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.sites.mk:

Remove all references to sourceforge.net except for telia.dl.sourceforge.net.  You may want to add unc.dl.sourceforge.net as an alternate as well.
