You can check out the examples of curl-ca-bundle, freetype, minivmac,  
mysql5-devel (see the +innodb_plugin variant), among others. I located  
these examples by grepping the Portfiles for those that define the  
"distfiles" keyword -- not all of these specify multiple distfiles,  
but that is I think the primary reason why one would use that keyword.

It's simpler if you only specify the distfiles' names once each:

checksums           molmol-2k.2.0-src.tar.gz \
                     md5     e1f4416d8041a67fa08cadb03ed91c7c \
                     sha1    09482a1dea601563ca64e773dc0ec47019e22c63 \
                     rmd160  b1de89953631dd9b11928751d7853cb511bf45f0 \
                     molmol-2k.2.0-doc.tar.gz \
                     md5     517545b60b0179ab691a679ed29903a7 \
                     sha1    b47551283fa19f57f4d5edcbd52f725055d80b7f \
                     rmd160  08b3e21ab6eb7c9044e59373334181ff91ca8a53

Typically that would be

extract.mkdir yes
