 * We don't have FETCH_COOKIE, and if we did the dependency would cause make -k
 * to skip the build as expected.

This has nothing to do with cookies, Adam.  Look at the "fetch:"
target, and see how it returns 0 if "make -k" doesn't report failure.
Now look at the other targets (with my proposed patch), and see how
the cookies will be created anyway if "make -k" doesn't report
failure.

 * There must have been a good reason not to implement FETCH_COOKIE?

Yes.  ${WRKDIR} is not created at that point. :)

I didn't bother trying to work around that because invoking do-fetch
on an already-fetched set of distfiles in harmless (basically it will
just check the files are there and return 0).
