Hi DES

Could you please also look at another particularly annoying bug?

If you are fetching something (usually happens with "make fetch" in
ports/), and there is a line outage (happens on my ISDN line sometimes,
fetch does not recover. The progress meter freezes on wherever it was
and fetch stops doing anything. A ^C breaks out of it, but that obviously
messes up a big fetch :-).

What do you need? I can reproduce this any time. (Not when I'm at work!)
