ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD has three directories
packages-1.1, packages-1.1.5 and packages (for 2.0). fetch any that you
like and then use pkg_info to see what they are, and pkg_add to install them.
pkg_add -n will display the installation steps without actually doing the
install (like make -n).
