It was caused by a change to the checksum target in ports. The checksum of a pre-existing file is tested and if it fails, the file is deleted and a new version is downloaded. The point of this is presumably to remove re-rolled distfiles. The problem is that a file that fails the checksum is usually either a useful incomplete file from an interrupted download, or a download in progress.
