It's quite simple if you investigate the content of the FTP server. :-)

Doesn't work:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-STABLE/All/m4-1.4.16,1.tbz

Works:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All/m4-1.4.16,1.tbz

Just change "packages-8-STABLE" to "packages-8-stable" and try again.
