Is anyone else having problems with their ISP Traffic-Shaping FTP in favour of HTTP? In my case the problem is quite severe and FTP distfile downloads are running below dial-up speed. If it's not just me, it would be nice to have a "PREFER_HTTP_SITES" option that brings any http sites to the the beginning of the site list in bsd.port.mk.
