I think the OP misunderstood the intent of the "named-xfer" option.  It's
there to support putting the named-xfer program in a directory different
from where the makefile expects it to be.  While it *could* be used to
completely replace the named-xfer program (and even if the option weren't
there you could have done this simply by putting your own program in place
of the normal named-xfer), this wasn't what it was really for, and there
was no requirement to retain the option in the new architecture.
