Raphael, Schaich, et al.

Thank you for responding, I didn't record which mirrors were failing,
but I think the mirrors are OK.
I eventually got the distfile from

http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.5//qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5.tar.gz

through my web browser.
The checksum and size matched, so I manually placed it in
/usr/ports/distfiles and thereafter portmaster completed the building
with no further problem.

I think what happened was that the fetch process (which was invoked
through portmaster) was attempting to use my /tmp file in the download
process.
I've been using a 256 Mb tmpfs for my /tmp file and it ran out of space.
I cleared /tmp and increased my tmpfs to 512 Mb.

Thank you again.
