I understand :) you can do this (see below) :)
IMHO, I prefer "checksum'd" docs :)
Obviously, "daily changing" documentations can't be reasonnably
"checksum'ed", but I don't think is a good idea to install them with the
port :)
Here 's my small example:
PORTNAME= suphp
PORTVERSION= 0.2.3
CATEGORIES= www
DISTFILES= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}${EXTRACT_SUFX}:0
MASTER_SITES= http://www.suphp.org/download/:0
.if !defined(NOPORTDOCS)
DISTFILES+= suphp-fr-doc-0.2.3.tar.gz:1
MASTER_SITES+= http://www.cultdeadsheep.org/sheepkiller/:1
.endif

It was a simple "copy and paste" :)
