 I already sent this, but it didn't make it into the audit-trail of the
 pr, so I'm sending it again.  The freebsd-bugs list should already have

 This is me just telling tales.  Fix the MASTER_SITES line in the 
 port's Makefile by removing `plor.tgz' and it'll work fine.

 FWIW, the weatherman seems to have lied.  Can never trust them these days.
 It is cold, though.
