Hi Chris,

Thanks for letting us know. I'm looking into this problem right now, and
hope to have it resolved shortly. I'm currently running a manual resync
with the FreeBSD ftp-master site, so when this is complete, the problems
should be resolved. I will deploy a FreeBSD box for testing purposes
when this is complete.

Regards,

Robert.
