This is an unfair comment.
The *distfile* changed.  That implies a poudriere run.
THe person marking BROKEN often does it in a batch of a several ports
that have starting failing in a bulk run.  They aren't looking at *any*
of them and rely on the maintainer or a user that cares to figure out
what happened.

In this case, it's as much work as you can ask without having to
generate patches, so I don't agree with the second half of the comment
AT ALL.
