Yes, I know. I had already downloaded and checked the
contents of the tarball, but
there are no README, COPYRIGHT, nor anything that can
provide a clue as to what version/snapshot of the code we
have.

And yes I can diff the files I have against the ones that
came from the tarball with the old checksum ... but where do
I get the old tarball? Does FreeBSD store this somewhere?

But wait ... I just searched Google and found a couple of
mirrors that seem to be outdated. So, yes I've found the old tarball with
checksum 05464867b24f69906f8383c1d233afbe at 
http://www.rdg.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/seaview.tar?

The difference between the two?

 fini:
 fclose(in);


So I guess I'll submit a PR to update the distinfo and fix
the port.
