Do I need /var/db/portsnap/distfiles and /usr/port/distfiles?

[Dave Horsfall]

There is only the one FreeBSD box in my stable, hence I don't need to 
build packages for others.  It's a somewhat minimalist box (all I can 
afford), and I'd like to recover some space.  Can I just delete their 
contents?

aneurin# du -sk /usr/ports/distfiles /var/db/portsnap/files 
965198	/usr/ports/distfiles
106594	/var/db/portsnap/files

It will claw me back about 1GB, which for me is a big deal...
