The WWW is odd here. The source files are coming from github.com/vim/vim,
but the WWW is for a related but unused project.

I update vim at the beginning of every month plus whenever new minors are
released, and whenever there are patches that it's important for us to
downstream. Rather than pinning xxd to a version that will be old literally
tomorrow, why not pull the DISTVERSION and distinfo from
editors/vim/Makefile?
