I first had the problem with cups-1.1.22-source.tar.bz2 when updating
the cups port.  I had corrupted files from several ftp sites and I
remember that the file sizes were different each time.
I just used 'fetch' to get the same file and it is corrupted once again,
but the filesize is correct this time.  I'd be happy to send you the
file but I have no ftp server available to me.  May I upload it? (8MB)
I noticed that fetch compiled with propolice and SOME ftp sites do not 
play  well together. They ALWAYS play well when some proxy is involved - 
even on same server! Basically fetch complains that file is corrupted 
(size 0) despite transferring it in full. But this is nothing new - 
was/is present on FreeBSD with propolice for some time.
