BTW, could you please send me the latest version of your gzip->bzip2 conversion patch? I found that in most cases existing .gz distfiles could be easily converted into .bz2 by just recompressing them appropriately, so that I'm currently thinking about committing the patch and providing bandwidth-disabed users with the script to convert gzips into bzips.
