Normal 4.2-RELEASE system. Normal attempt to build port, using make.

>Description:

I tried to make the htmldoc port and discovered that gunzip reports that the file htmldoc-1.8.19-source.tar.gz as having a bad checksum.
I re-downloaded that file from the main freebsd.org site and then from a mirror site, with the same results. I tried gunzip by itself
(that is, outside make) several times and sometimes gunzip even did a crash and dump!

>How-To-Repeat:

/usr/ports/textproc/htmldoc#make
1.8.19-source.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
>Fix:

Maybe I could drop back to an earlier version of the port, but I am not enthusiastic about that.
Other than that, I don't know. Try to re-port it? Seems kind of silly.
