Sourceforge seems to have gone re-direct happy.  Downloading anything from
there seems to require following at least two 302 redirects -- eg:

happy-idiot-talk:...ports/databases/phpmyadmin:% HEAD -uSe http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin-3.2.1-all-languages.tar.bz2
HEAD http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/project/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/3.2.1/phpMyAdmin-3.2.1-all-languages.tar.bz2
HEAD http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin-3.2.1-all-languages.tar.bz2 --> 302 Found
HEAD http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin-3.2.1-all-languages.tar.bz2?download&failedmirror=ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net --> 302 Found
HEAD http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/project/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/3.2.1/phpMyAdmin-3.2.1-all-languages.tar.bz2 --> 200 OK

Notice how it's forced me to go to the Kent mirror?  (Not that I'm complaining --
UKC is only about 15 miles up the road in Canterbury)

This is why I added

    FETCH_ARGS?= -pRr

to the latest update I submitted for phpMyAdmin.  Taking out the default -A flag
lets fetch follow all the redirection.

	Cheers,
