 From the NetBSD guide:
 
 The exception to this rule are URLs starting with a dash. In that case
 the URL is taken as is, fetched and the result stored under the name
 of the distfile.
 
 So the "make fetch-list" output would need to strip the dash and add a
 "-o filename" option to the ftp invocation. This involves editing
 mk/fetch/fetch-list.mk.
