IMHO, we should support different file transfer utilities. I use wget or
curl sometimes to check fetching, or limit bandwidth. USE_SIZE should be
supported when you use fetch, and skipped when you use wget.
like ${CC}, use an altnertive at your own risk.

perhaps we should add, something like this...

.if ${FETCH_CMD:M/usr/bin/fetch} != ""
FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS+=     $${CKSIZE:+-S $$CKSIZE}
.endif
