The patch applied without difficulty and I've restarted the make
process using portmaster-devel. 

For some reason make in the ports tree seems to be re-extracting
distfiles when it isn't necessary, can that be turned off? I think
the behavior is new, sometime in the last few months.

In this case it'll impose a considerable time penalty. It would
appear to render impossible any patching of ports source files.

Thanks for reading, and your help!
