Your analysis of what happened sounds totally spot-on and no, nothing is
impossible. Does not sound like an unlikely bug, as bugs go. Get the
pointers wrong, and send the FTP server command on the wrong session ...

Subject: Bizarre maybe-FTP problem

After uploading some barely changed source files via FTP to z/OS 1.12 today,
I got a ton of assembler errors.

Some research revealed that the first line of a macro read:
STOR membername
(where membername was the name of the member, doh).

That isn't what it read on the PC side, and looks suspiciously like an FTP
command somehow became part of the data! Anyone ever seen anything like
that? I know it sounds "impossible".
