 The shell did help, finally figured out what was going on.  The
 warning you see is harmless.  As you see ftp.ee.freebsd.org has IPv4
 and IPv6 addresses:
 
 $ host ftp.ee.freebsd.org
 ftp.ee.freebsd.org is a nickname for ftp.estpak.ee
 ftp.estpak.ee has address 194.126.101.101
 ftp.estpak.ee has address 2001:7d0:0:1:216:35ff:fe9f:946
 ftp.estpak.ee mail is handled (pri=10) by zen.estpak.ee
 
 libfetch(3) tries to connect to IPv6 address and bind(2) fails because
 ip address you use for FETCH_BIND_ADDRESS is IPv4 one.  Then
 libfetch(3) tries to connect to IPv4 address (194.126.101.101) and
 bind(2) works OK here.  You can avoid this warning with fetch -4 flag.
 
 Hope everything clear now and I can close the PR.  Thanks for the
 shell access!
