I have had the following in my /etc/make.conf for a very long time:

FETCH_CMD=runsocks ftp -p
FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=
FETCH_AFTER_ARGS=

But I do have to sometimes hack port Makefiles that set before/after
args...

Like Nate said.  What's the problem with passive mode?  I'm doing it
over socks, which adds a whole layer of added complexity.
