 I don't see why this is needed: they are first use at exactly the place where
they were originally defined.

 That said, these definitions fit much better where you put them now (just after
the handling of _SOURCE), so keep it this way. Could be a seperate patch but not
really required for me.

 I haven't tested, but according to me this code already did the right thing:

ifneq ($$($(2)_ACTUAL_SOURCE_TARBALL),$$($(2)_SOURCE))
    $$(call DOWNLOAD,$$($(2)_ACTUAL_SOURCE_SITE)/$$($(2)_ACTUAL_SOURCE_TARBALL))
endif

 It is true, however, that the original code didn't handle the case where a
package explicitly declares ACTUAL_SOURCE_TARBALL to be empty.

 Have we still not gotten rid of PKGDIR? How silly...

 This is not really related to this patch (it was like that in the original),
but why do we qstrip here?

 As noted by Luca, we're missing a -legal-info -> legal-source dependency here.

 Actually we should have the same kind of logic here as in _ALL_DOWNLOADS, to
allow for multiple ACTUAL_SOURCE_TARBALLs and different SITEs. And that would
also remove the need for the ACTUAL_SOURCE_SITE. And if we use a foreach, it
would remove the need to check for an empty TARBALL. But of course, all that is
not for this patch :-)

 The rest of .PHONY is kept alphabetically ordered...
