I fixed what might have been a permissions problem on ftp-master a few
minutes ago.  If the bits don't show up in the next few hours, there might
be a real problem to investigate.  Also be aware that ftp.freebsd.org has
a round-robin DNS entry, and that one of the entries (freebsd.isc.org) is
much faster than the other.
