#61315: Distfile fetch for python39 hangs on 10.5

 Priority:  Normal     |  Milestone:
Component:  base       |    Version:  2.6.3
 Keywords:             |       Port:  python39
-----------------------+----------------------
 The distfile fetch for
 https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.9.0/Python-3.9.0.tar.xz hangs
 indefinitely on 10.5, both i386 and ppc.  It does ''not'' hang under 10.4,
 so it's not a "too old" problem.  It's successfully fetchable with
 command-line MacPorts curl, and with TenFourFox, so it's specific to the
 internal libcurl.  Neither -v nor -d provides any useful additional
 information.

 There's some evidence that this is a recent development.  I haven't seen
 trouble with any other ports, though there haven't been any other updates
 that would fetch from python.org.

 The workaround is to fetch the distfile manually, and place it in the
 proper directory.
