Since being employed by Cisco, I have found a few things Internet-wise no
longer work.  This is, or course, becuase we are behind a firewall.
Setting the FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=       YES option in /etc/make.conf should
overcome fetch problems, right?  Well, I did a grep -i through all the
/usr/share/mk files, and found no reference to this option or passive ftp
in general.  Was adding the -p option to fetch overlooked, or is this make
option doing something else enitrely?  I can grab the ports manually just
fine, but allowing fetch to do things automatically fails on most ftp
sites.
