Actually, it's a violation not of RFC959 (FTP) but of RFC1738 which
indicates how FTP URLs should be handled.

Thanks.

I'm going to set up a ports fetch run with FTP_COMBINE_CWDS enabled to
see how it works out in the ugly, real world.  If it works out well, I
might replace the #ifdef with a command-line option or environment
variable for "strict RFC conformance".
