From what you've shown me, I can only conclude that libfetch is
performing as expected, and the proxy is broken.

You can try to work around it by setting FTP_PROXY to an empty string,
which would tell libfetch not to use a proxy for FTP downloads.

Please show me the output of a successful download with the same
options.
