Not meaning to rain on the parade, but I think ftpget is a bad name now... 
One port (squid) installs /usr/local/bin/ftpget, and I dread the confusion 
that this may cause....

Also, since it does both ftp and http fetches, ftpget is an increasingly 
inappropriate name..  Could we rename it to something like (say) netget..  
(I know, that's a boring and uninspiring name...)

Cheers,
