Delving through the source code...it appears that it only uses the ftp_proxy when given an ftp url

something like:

> ftp ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/README.TXT
Requesting ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/README.TXT
  (via www-proxy.ksu.edu:8080)

Only the fetch side uses proxy (triggered by there being a ':' in the argument.)

The interactive ftp side doesn't.
