20040129:
SIZE lines in distinfo files: if you set USE_SIZE when you do "make
makesum", the byte sizes of the distfiles will be listed in the
distinfo file. Then, if a distfile is replaced on its master site with
one of a different size than that listed, "make fetch" will fail with a
"size mismatch" error before downloading the file and the user will be
asked to fetch the file by hand. Also, a user will know the size of
the distfiles before fetching and decide to fetch later.
