Except that ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX} will be added to the end of any
URL I list under MASTER_SITES.  It doesn't help setting 'DISTFILES=
""' either -- that just gets a usage message from basename(1).

Currently I have:

    PORTNAME=       gentium
    PORTVERSION=    1.0.1
    CATEGORIES=     x11-fonts
    MASTER_SITES=   http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/render_download.php?site_id=nrsi&format=file&media_id=Gentium_101_LT&_sc=1&dummy=/
    DISTNAME=       fonts-ttf-${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}

which does the job.  That trailing '/' seems to be quite important...

	Cheers,

	Matthew
