ftp.freebsd.org (alias MASTER_SITE_FREEBSD) is the "last resort" used  
when all other mirrors fail. The problem was earlier on:

>> Attempting to fetch /usr/mirports/Distfiles/lynx2.8.7dev.2.tar.gz  
from http://lynx.isc.org/current/.
Requesting http://lynx.isc.org/current/lynx2.8.7dev.2.tar.gz
ftp: Can't open `lynx2.8.7dev.2.tar.gz': Permission denied

I am not quite sure if the "Permission denied" error is local or if  
it comes from the server. Assuming it is local,

% sudo chown -R user:user /usr/mirports/Distfiles

should help you (replace "user" by your user name).
