That is definitely different here. I first put FETCH_USING= wget into 
/etc/mk.conf, and ftp still was used. Then I added FETCH_CMD= wget, and 
then wget was used with ftp-URLs.
That was, when I had spaces between "=" and the value as exampled in the 
docs.
Without spaces (e.g. FETCH_USING=wget), nothing is changed at all.

It is on NetBSD 5, and the content of /etc/mk.conf is just the 2 
parameters above.
