Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 It could be that all the ports that succeeded were fetched as binaries,
 while for ghostscript a binary was not available so it tried to build from
 source, and it's the source download that's having a problem. That would
 also point to the system curl library working ok, since binary downloads
 also use curl.

 The "callback" mentioned in the error message might be the display of the
 progress bar. Is there anything unusual about your terminal that might
 interfere with terminal activities more advanced than just printing text?
 Are you for example connected via ssh or are you using `screen`? Both of
 those work for me, but if you're doing anything like that, try running the
 command directly without those instead. Or if you're using a shell other
 than bash, try using bash.

 If all else fails or if you're in a crunch to resolve this quickly, you
 can of course [ProblemHotlist#fetch-failures download the distfiles
 manually] and put them where they belong, but long term that's going to
 get tiresome if you have to do that for every port that downloads source.
