My FreeBSD box has only a 56K modem, but I have access to non-BSD machines
that have T1 lines. I'd like to use those machines to download the larger
distfiles, and transfer them onto my BSD machine with a Zip disk.

How can I interpret the Makefile of a port to ensure that I get all the
appropriate distfiles? Just look at the DISTFILES, BUILD_DEPENDS, and
RUN_DEPENDS?
