Hiya,

I've got a suggestion about the fetch part of the ports mechanism.

It would be useful if it was possible to configure the fetch to be
passive (-P) if required.  All of my machines are behind a fire wall
and I can't therefore get the ports mechanism to work fully automatically.

Can we add a switch (probably in /etc/make.conf) somewhere please?

Cheers,
Joe
