progress information. The first is that fetch_read() (used in the HTTP
code but not the FTP code) can enter an infinite loop if it has previously
been interrupted by a signal. The second is that when it is interrupted,
fetch_read() will discard any data it may have read up to that point.
Luckily, both bugs are extremely timing-sensitive and therefore difficult
to trigger.

but the use of fseek() means fetch(1) can't correctly resume a transfer
that was interrupted past the 2 GB mark.

fseek up one level to cover the (unlikely but not impossible) case where
the server accepts ranges but does not send a Content-Size header.

returned by the server matched what we requested, and blindly appended
what we received to what we already had. This could go two ways: if the
delivered offset was higher than expected, the local file would contain
duplicate data, while if it was lower than expected, there would be data
missing from the middle of the file. Furthermore, if the transfer was
interrupted again, each subsequent attempt would compound the error.
Fix the first problem by restarting the transfer from scratch if there
is a gap, and the second by explicitly seeking to the correct location
in the local file so as to overwrite any duplicated data.

ftp_timeout / http_timeout.

fetch(1) accepts a new argument -i <file> that if specified will cause
the file to be downloaded only if it is more recent than the mtime of
<file>.
libfetch(3) accepts the mtime in the url structure and a flag to
indicate when this behavior is desired.

really wants to build non-cryptographic binaries, but the "crypto"
release distribution is now part of "base", and anyone installing from a

Use %ju and an (uintmax_t) cast to print size_t values.
Use %jd and an (intmax_t) cast to print off_t values.
Use off_t variables to hold the difference between two off_t values.
Don't bother with unsigned char where char will do nicely.
