Sure looks like the distinfo file disagrees with snort.org's checksums.

You can type "make makesum" to create a new distinfo file with the 
correct checksums in it (after downloading the sig file and tarball 
**and** checking them against snort's md5 file to ensure they're the same.)

Then the port should build fine.

I'd sure like to know why the checksums changed, though.  Maybe we 
should ask someone at snort?
