>Description:
	

libfetch-based fetch(1) has no useful -v output.  The old fetch(1)
printed out each command, so that you could see which one failed,
e.g.

nectar% fetch -v ftp://ftp.csd.uch.gr/pub/X11/games/xvmines-1.0.tar.Z
Sending: USER anonymous

The new fetch(1) says nothing useful:

stash% fetch -v -v -v -v ftp://ftp.csd.uch.gr/%2fpub/X11/games/xvmines-1.0.tar.Z
looking up ftp.csd.uch.gr
connecting to ftp.csd.uch.gr:21
fetch: xvmines-1.0.tar.Z: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
stash% 


http is similar.

>How-To-Repeat:
	

Compare "fetch -v" output before and after libfetch-izing.

>Fix:

	

Add the old verbose debugging output back.
