ncftp checksum match

Hi,

I got a checksum match when trying to upgrade ncftp.  Here's the  
output from my second attempt:

murr ports # port clean ncftp
--->  Cleaning ncftp
murr ports # rm -fr /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/*

murr ports # md5 /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/ncftp/ncftp-3.2.4- 
src.tar.bz2
MD5 (/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/ncftp/ncftp-3.2.4-src.tar.bz2)  
= bc4af9801f626d541f0bf6b7ac4dae1f

I've also downloaded the file manually from ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.ncftp.com/ncftp/ncftp-3.2.4-src.tar.bz2 
  and this had the same checksum as the one that MacPorts downloaded:
francis at murr ~ $ md5 ~/Downloads/ncftp-3.2.4-src.tar.bz2
MD5 (/Users/francis/Downloads/ncftp-3.2.4-src.tar.bz2) =  
bc4af9801f626d541f0bf6b7ac4dae1f

Anyone know why this is happening?  Could a different tarball have  
been released for the same version of ncftp?  Or is it something more  
sinister?

Thanks,

Francis
