About a month ago I saw a problem where many of the packaged ports 
disappeared from the main and mirror ftp sites.  I didn't have time to drop
a message then, and just compiled them myself.  However I'm seeing this
problem again today.  And it isn't just this one package -- numerous items
that appear in the ports searches are missing.

neptune.sv$ fetch
