   * whops, my fault, I started to do a make and didn't realize that ftp hadn't
   * cleaned up after itself.  please remove it
  
  People, please don't run a make on freefall!  The /usr/ports tree is
  used for sup and ctm, and will screw up a lot of folks when there is
  something broken in there.

I was doing the make out of a subdirectory of my home directory just
to insure I hadn't screwed up any patches.
  
  By the way, this is usually caused because bsd.port.mk will go and
  muck with /usr/ports automatically in many cases (fetch, dependency)
  without yelling at you about it, even if you start the make in your
  own private directory.... ;)

Exactly. :-)
  
  Now that I got root on freefall, maybe we should drop write permission 
  for the ports group....

  
   *   The file "xc-1.tar.gz" in /FreeBSD-current/ports/distfiles/xc/ is wrong

  Hmm, but the one on wcarchive has been correct though.  Did you mean
  the sup tree?
