Automated run is done, patch is here: [1]. It's not the final
version, as it turned out to be more complex as I thought. There
are things like SF:foo SF:bar (we can do this, right?), and
${MASTER_SITE_SOURECFORGE:C/$/:foo}, which should be fixed manually.
Also there are slave ports, for masters of which you don't want to
substitude ${PORTNAME} in some cases. There's a log [2] which lists
potential issues. Tomorrow I'll look them through and manually fix
remaining ports, run a quick fetchability test and present a final
patch.

PS. Btw, SOURCEFORGE_EXTENDED and SOURCEFORGE_JP still use an old
scheme. Because of that SFE can no longer include SF, and honestly, I
would like it to go away, as there are more than enough official SF
mirrors. Also need to check if our SF mirror list can be extended with
more mirrors, last time I had that `select mirrors' screen on
sourceforge it looked like there are much more mirrors than we have.
