If you go to
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/security/pf/
and click on the 'Download this directory in tarball' link at the
bottom of the page, you'll get a nice little .tar.gz file containing:
% tar -ztvf pf.tar.gz

You can unpack that directory anywhere on your system and use it to
make and install the port, so long as you have /usr/ports/Mk/ and
/usr/ports/distfiles/ and so forth in the usual places.
