Re: make fetch-list suport for DIST_PATH

I noticed that "make fetch-list | sh" does not behave the same as
"make fetch" with respect to the DIST_PATH variable as documented in
pkgsrc/mk/defaults/mk.conf and pkgsrc/mk/fetch/bsd.fetch-vars.mk.
The attached patch fixes this and I'd like to commit it. It cribs
the DIST_PATH support from pkgsrc/mk/fetch/fetch.mk
fetch-list has many restrictions and really only is useful when you want
to fetch distfiles somewhere else (e.g. because you still have metered
internet at home). Generally, it is much better to use:
make depends-checksum
...which provides the recursion and also handles errors much better.
