make MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=http://www.cdrom.com/pub/tex/ctan/systems/unix/teTeX/distrib/sources/

will grab the files more quickly than the default of 

ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/comp/tex/teTeX/distrib/sources/

at least for me at this instant in time.  Gotta love fetch's http
ability.

Usually this doesn't matter, but for 7M I don't want 800cps over a
3kcps.  I want 3kcps :-)

The more I use the port makefile system, the more I like it.  Oh, I
noticed there was no port for xv.  Is this intentional?
