Since I have a free minute, I'll do this mega-research for
you.

There are 1372 makefiles in /usr/ports that match
'^MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR=[[:space:]]*\$\{PORTNAME\}$'

These don't include those where portname is spelled
explicitly (instead of ${PORTNAME})

1212 of these use SOURCEFORGE (1153 exclusively and
59 with other sites)

The rest is:
_GNU (with derivatives) - 53
_SAVANNAH - 39
_MOZDEV - 4
and others

34 of these ports use %SUBDIR% in custom URLs.

6676 ports use _SUBDIR macro. Over 20% can be simplified
after this patch is applied.

Mind you, it's not easy (read earlier in this thread) to define
SUBDIR default based on MASTER_SITE macro in use. If all
goes well, I'll work on a slightly more complicated patch
that will provide correct defaults for about 2000 p5 ports.
