Good catch, I spotted the file size difference error but assumed this
was moaning about the new copy it was downloading and not an
existing copy.

Seems for some reason mysql-5.6.12.tar.gz has changed sizes
and checksums since I last downloaded and after updating ports
from svn it was expecting a new version of the file without a change
in filename, hence the issue.

Seems odd that the ports system wouldn't catch this and delete
the bad original before trying to re-download or forcing an overwrite
on download.
