As the other person involved in nearly an hour-long debugging session
to get _basic_ ftp functionality working, I'd like to agree with this,
strongly. If it means turning off ftp til it gets test cases, so be it.
Right now I can break ftp in 4 different ways, trivially - and the lack
of a test suite means that tracking down each of these bugs will be 
an absolute nightmare.
