I already enabled --with-system-graphite.  That distfile isn't in this
version of ext_sources.  There may be other stuff in there that can be nuked
as well, but I didn't look.  I basically just fetched the stuff that was in the
ext_sources svn repo and added the missing distfiles noted above.

I spent way too much time battling boost and finally gave up.  I didn't know
there was a PR.

I am currently working on a patch so that --with-system-jpeg will hopefully
work.

Because of the downloaded distfile issue during build, I also looked at rhino
and mdds.  There's no knob for rhino, and they are using a much older version
of mdds, which seems to be incompatible with what we have in ports.

I'll keep an eye out.  Hopefully that upgrade will go more smoothly.
