I already have.  I would have submitted a patchy, but I haven't figured out 
how to get the build system to download the URL for rtr's frontpage properly.
It works fine from the command line

http://www.rtr.com/fpsupport/cgi-bin/fp2002sr1download.cgi?email=ports@freebsd.org&First_Name=freebsd&Last_Name=ports&version=fp50.freebsd.tar.Z

But putting this in the Makefile doesn't work:

MASTER_SITES=http://www.rtr.com/fpsupport/cgi-bin/fp2002sr1download.cgi?email=ports@freebsd.org&First_Name=freebsd&Last_Name=ports&version=

(it appears to append the file name to the end)

Putting slashes before the & is required on the command line, but doesn't
help (or hurt) in the Makefile...

The other option is for someone to download it and put it in the
ftp.freebsd.org distfiles archive ... but I can't do that.
