My work-around did the job, but to be sure after I
pkg_delete'd -2.1.23, I did make deinstall/reinstall.
My cvsup script runs portsdb -Uu nightly ... so unclear

You may be right re the mirror sites; this is what happens
when I try to get the most recent gcc fixes:
===> Cleaning for gcc-3.3.3_20040126
Making GCC 3.3.3 for FreeBSD 4.7 elf target
i386-portbld-freebsd4.7

/usr/ports/distfiles/.

fetch: invalid size ( 9784532)
It's a headscratch.
