[or-cvs] Update OpenBSD via tor?

pkg_add, the perl tool that OpenBSD uses for installs and updates, uses
ftp to fecth http and ftp files and sources.

But in OpenBSD this ftp can't be socksified (otherwise using dsocks that
do the job honestly), and so I don't know how to use it via tor.

I tried wget setting a FETCH_CMD= env  but pkg_add uses ftp with somme
extra commands that wget don't understand:

man pkg_add:
FETCH_CMD ------ Override use of ftp(1).
Must point to a command that understands ${FETCH_CMD} -o - url.
..
Any of you guys using OpenBSD out there?

Help!

Thanks.
