My reading of the bug is the former, since the latter would be fairly
astonishing.  Passive FTP does not require any special inspection by
NAT, while active does.  It's possible that they're using an
application-level FTP proxy, but in that case, if it's what's
enforcing "active only", I'd expect it to reject the PASV command.

But it wouldn't hurt to get more detail before we leap into it.
