Oh, crap.  The god of portsnap and things FBSD has spoken and said 
I'm a dipshit.  And of course he's right  ;)

Yeah, it goes through squid.... cause IIRC you suggested it.  It 
speeds up multi-machine updates a bunch.  But when they all started 
doing the same thing, I figured it was something on the 
servers.  I've been snapping for over a year, and it's always worked 
great through squid.  Don't know what changed, but I gave squid a 
re-init, and portsnap is fetching 6200 patches.  I should probably 
just blow out ports and start from scratch at this point.

Thanks, Colin!
