[Moving to -PORTS from -STABLE]

This is an annoyance, ISC names all their versions of bind to
bind-src.tar.gz and puts them in a dir that reflects the version
number. This breaks ports unless you delete the old file(s) from
/usr/ports/distfiles. I have cc'd the maintainer on this, I'm
wondering if we shouldn't store these source files in their own
directory, ie; 

/usr/ports/distfiles/$BIND_VERSION/bind-src.tar.gz
/usr/ports/distfiles/$BIND_VERSION/bind-doc.tar.gz

Or something like that, It'll prevent confusion between old and new
versions, something to think about =)
