Hi all
Warning
I was doing a make fetch on ports ... & look at this:
-------
===> editors/emacs
>> emacs-19.30.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system.
>> Attempting to fetch from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/.
Receiving file: /pub/gnu/emacs-19.30.tar.gz 
100%  0                                              10039387 bytes. ETA:  0:00
/pub/gnu/emacs-19.30.tar.gz: 10039387 bytes received in 7784.39 seconds, 1.26 K/s.
>> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/.
Receiving file: emacs-19.30.tar.gz

IE I took 2 hours to fetch 10M over my 14K4 modem, 
Then It Starts Fetching Again !

Those who want to avoid high net charges Beware !
But if someone confirms this behaviour, plse mail jkh@freebsd.org,
( who owns ports/editors/emacs/Makefile. )
