fetch(1) can hang for a very long time (if not forever) if the server
stops responding but doesn't close the connection. I had that problem
with ei5nazha.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp trying to fetch the w3m distfile;
fetch hung for five or six minutes before I killed it. I therefore
suggest that the default FETCH_CMD in bsd.port.mk be changed from
'fetch -A' to 'fetch -A -T60' or something.
