Hi Colin,

I've tried removing all of /var/db/portsnap/* and refetching several
times today, but all the attempts resulted in corrupt snapshots, like
this one:

% root at kobe:/root# rm -fr /var/db/portsnap/*
% root at kobe:/root# portsnap fetch
% Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 4 mirrors found.

% root at kobe:/root# 

Is something wrong with the portsnap servers, or should I try to see if
there's something odd with my latest CURRENT upgrade?
