>Organization:
Improware AG
>Environment:
>Description:
Fetch should use for the ports-system the default '-b'. Else, a lot
of the ports fail and the user has to fetch the files by himself.

>How-To-Repeat:
Any port which uses HTTP-Files as sources to fetch.

fetch -A  http://www4.vmware.com/software/VMware-2.0.1-546.tar.gz
fetch: empty reply from www4.vmware.com
>Fix:
Use 'fetch -b' as default in the port-system.

fetch -Ar  http://www4.vmware.com/software/VMware-2.0.1-546.tar.gz
