Try either doing a 'make distclean' first to remove any corrupted
copies of the distfile you may have, and if that still fails then you
can fetch a known-good copy from ftp.freebsd.org by setting
MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE or MASTER_SITE_BACKUP in /etc/make.conf (compare
to the example make.conf file to see how).

Well, if you can't use FTP at *all* then that's your root problem.
You'll need to do some more debugging to track down what is going
wrong.  e.g. use verbose modes on ftp clients, tcpdump, check network
settings, any proxy settings, etc.
