This is simple enough.
if [ ! -e ${DISTFILES}/bash-3.0.tar.bz2 ]
then
die "I could not find the bash-3.0.tar.bz2 file. Please download this
file from $blah and copy it to ${DISTFILES}."
fi
Of course, $blah would be a download location for the tarball.
I think this would be a preferred solution rather than attempting the
fetch ourselves using some other manner.

That could be a working solution, but I still prefer simply checking and
bailing out.
