Unfortunately, our corporate firewall blocks anything but http/port80, https/port443. Thus, neither CVS nor CVSup are an option. in addition, the install is still running after 24 hours. At this time, the full install churns slowly against ports/x11-themes.

You might like to consider CTM[1]. Whilst you'll need to get the original starting delta via FTP, updates from then on can be e-mailed to you (typically 3 per day for cvs-cur).

One more hint: "calcru: runtime went backwards..." pops up once or twice for each file.

Lots of kernel printf messages won't be helping performance.
