I have two proposals:

1) distfiles/${category}/${name}
   Hierarchy matching the ports tree. Using name only results in a long
   list if we add files for more ports.

2) trunk/dports/${category}/${name}/distfiles
   Although that would mix up sources only and binaries in the same
   tree, if that matters (e.g. on branching/tagging). But with this
   solution all files belonging to a port would be together at one
   place.
