Wow, just played with the command rpm --showrc to see just what ftp'ish

As others have noted, rpm and yum use different mechanisms. (There's talk of
dropping rpm's internal ftp/http code in a future release, by the way.)

Yum uses python-urlgrabber, which actually does in fact support resuming
partial downloads.
