Yes, there is, but a GH_DISTNAME macro is missing from our GH_ stuff,
and I do not want to handle a specific MASTER_SITES for that.

Furthermore it is now possible to get other formats (woff, etc.) if
someone needs them.

The disadvantage is only some BUILD_DEPENDS for ports builders, but
these are light ports.
