Comment(by dports@…):

 Although I'm listed as the maintainer of this port, I'm not entirely clear
 on where the distfiles are coming from. It looks like we are using the
 Debian package's tarball of the emacs git repo?

 The problem appears to be that they generate a new snapshot weekly and
 remove the old distfile, and the one we're using is gone. We could rely on
 our distfile mirror to keep the old version around, but for some reason,
 it didn't pick up this one. I am not sure that this is the solution we
 want to keep using, but we could just update the port to the latest
 snapshot and make sure it gets mirrored.
