Perhaps I should have been more specific. The default DISTNAME works
fine for source tarball, but the extra documentation is from a URL that
reside outside the directory specified by $MASTER_SITES, i.e. the source
is at http://somehost/${PORTNAME}/${PORTNAME}.${PORTVERSION}.tar.gz but
the extra documentation is at http://somehost/${PORTNAME}.html. Should
I shrink MASTER_SITES to "http://somehost/" and make DISTFILES include a
directory for what needs it? That seems wrong....
It's actually looking as if post-extract: would be the best place for a
fetch (it's the first target after $WRKSRC is created). But if there's
a "right" way to include the file in DISTFILES, I'll do that instead.

Well, yeah, but I was being brief. ;)
