more robust, and somewhat more efficient. It also handles authorization and redirects properly, and supports timeouts like the FTP code. Many thanks to Umemoto-san for his assistance with IPv6 support, both here and in other parts of libfetch.
This is the new fetch(3) library, which is to replace the ftpio(3) library and provide a new, unified backend for all fetch(1), pkg_add(1) and sysinstall(8). Note that this is very much work in progress. It compiles (with a few warnings), but there is much left to be implemented. Comments, patches etc. of all kinds are welcome, but please don't commit anything without talking to me first. -- Dag-Erling C. Smørgrav (des@FreeBSD.org)
