In /etc/make.conf would be the usual place.  From
/etc/defaults/make.conf:

    # If you're behind a firewall and need FTP or HTTP proxy services for
    # ports collection fetching to work, the following examples give the
    # necessary syntax.  See the fetch(3) man page for details.
    #
    #FETCH_ENV=     FTP_PROXY=ftp://10.0.0.1:21
    #FETCH_ENV=     HTTP_PROXY=http://10.0.0.1:80

or just set the FTP_PROXY and HTTP_PROXY variables in your
environment.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
