There are a couple of ports that are essentially broken.  The
problem is that make, nor myself for that matter, is unable to 
fetch the distribution.

The two ports that come to mind now are ncftp2 and xsnow.
Neither of these ports have a distribution on ftp.freebsd.org 
in the /pub/FreeBSD/distfiles directory.  I finally found the
xsnow distribution in, I believe, current/distfiles,  or something
like that.  I finally gave up on ncftp2.

I'm afraid I can't provide more information, simply because it
has been so long since I've tried.

The other question is, why does xcolors have a dependency on
ncftp2?  Since I couldn't fetch the ncftp2 dist, I simply 
cut that dependency out of the Makefile... The program seems
to work just fine...
