--As of June 19, 2011 10:49:58 AM +0400, Eir Nym is alleged to have said:

> when I try to cp -Rx, distfiles will be copied too.

--As for the rest, it is mine.

The distfiles directory, or the distfiles themselves?  If it's following 
the Gnu semantics (and from my test it was) it should create an empty 
distfiles directory.

All I can say is that on my 8.2-RELEASE system, it worked correctly when I 
tested it.
