Right after I posted this I cvsuped my ports and tried again, this time
it was looking for 109939-03.tar.Z and was able to find it.
My previous ports tree wasn't _that_ old (from some time in December,
I believe)
Apparently, what's happening is the patch file is being updated, and
the download sites aren't hanging on to the old patch files.  An
authoritative answer would be nice, but without out it, I guess I'm
happy with that assumption.
