Note that this change has caused our distfiles mirrors to download these distfiles a second time. And any users who already had the distfile downloaded before and now want to install the port again will needlessly download the distfiles a second time too. This is why changes like this should usually be made concurrently with a version update (when the distfile is changing anyway).
