I have a couple of problems with this change.  One is that the
subdirectory for the us.dl.sourceforge.net FTP site does not work for
either of the sites returned by the round robin DNS (typically ${SUBDIR}
is the same as ${PORTNAME}).

The other problem is that eu.dl.sourceforge.net was added as both an HTTP
and FTP server, but I was unable to connect to the FTP service.  I don't
know whether the latter trouble is just a temporary outage.

I've prepared a little patch that fixes both problems, with the assumption
that eu.dl.sourceforge.net will remain HTTP-only.  The patch is at
http://people.freebsd.org/~trevor/ports/sourceforge.diff .

Thank you for working on this.  Certainly it's a great improvement over
yesterday's situation.

Output showing the problems follows.
