hi,

I've installed the actually linux-ftpd version in order to make a NMU.
I was wondering by doing the following to reproduce the bug:

] $ echo "open ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:21" > script; python -c 'for i in 
range(1,5200): print "%ssyst" % ("A"*i)' >> script
] $ lftp -f script &> out
] $ grep -iv "Unknown command \`[A]*syst'." out | wc -l
] 0

As you can see there is no problem :)
Btw, the buffer is only 512K big, so ftpd might split the incoming buffer as
mentioned in 
http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2008-September/064697.html

Furthermore, the patch which is attached to this bug causes the package
not to build properly. So, it's better to wait for a new upstream release
or fix the patch :)

Kind regards,
Thomas.
