 Well, getting all maintainers' approval would be quite hard to
 accomplish. Would such a minor update require the maintainer's approval?

 When I finished adding the sums to the tree, I moved my distfiles
 directory out of the way and ran the `make checksum`, thus forcing Ports
 to refetch and check.

 silly.
