I think you should run:  grep -i 'ftp.*kernel\.org' ......
That will also match on "ftp://mirrors.kernel.org" and takes into
account that DNS names are case insensitive.

This still yields zero results on 14.2 but on 14.1 there are two hits.

kees at pcict9:/var/lib/sbopkg/SBo/14.1$ grep -i 'ftp.*kernel\.org' */*/*.info
graphics/plotutils/plotutils.info:DOWNLOAD="ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/gnu/plotutils/plotutils-2.6.tar.gz"
multimedia/gnash/gnash.info:DOWNLOAD="ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/gnu/gnash/0.8.10/gnash-0.8.10.tar.bz2"
