I am getting a fetch error on the mozplugger port I am working on.  The
url for mozplugger is:

http://download.mozdev.org/mozplugger/mozplugger-1.7.2.tar.gz

So I set PORTNAME, PORTVERSION, and MASTER_SITES as follows:

PORTNAME=      mozplugger
PORTVERSION=   1.7.2
MASTER_SITES=  http://download.mozdev.org/mozplugger/

but when I run make fetch it fails as follows:

===>  Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
=> mozplugger-1.7.2.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in
/usr/ports/distfiles/.
=> Attempting to fetch from http://download.mozdev.org/mozplugger/.
fetch: http://download.mozdev.org/mozplugger/mozplugger-1.7.2.tar.gz:
Moved Temporarily
=> Attempting to fetch from
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/.
fetch:
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/mozplugger-1.7.2.tar.gz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
=> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again.
*** Error code 1

Running the fetch command by hand succeeds though:

fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/mozplugger-1.7.2.tar.gz

I think the url is a cgi script which does a round-robin redirect, but
why would fetching by hand succeed when the port fetch fails?
