I had the same problem and that ftp is too slow for me. I changed the  
MASTER_SITES like this (below) to fetch those files better and faster.

=============================
-MASTER_SITES=	ftp://swrinde.nde.swri.edu/pub/png/src/ \
-		${MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE}
+MASTER_SITES=	${MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE} \
+		ftp://swrinde.nde.swri.edu/pub/png/src/
=============================

I think, we should change that in png port because sourceforge.net has  
plenty of mirrors.

Cheers,
Mezz
