ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/
as our distribution point for distfiles and patches. Other than
cosmetic changes (freebsd.cdrom.com -> ftp.freebsd.org), the
omission of "ports" is important. I would like to move this
directory completely out of the ports tree (on the ftp site),
so that people who do "get ports.tar.gz" won't get a bogus distfiles
-> ../distfiles symlink (which will make "make fetch" fail).
Sometime around the 2.1 release, the distfiles link will be deleted.
