Those errors happen when lftp is compiled with large file support (default)
and the kernel does not support 64 bit file locking.

Either compile lftp without large file support (configure --disable-largefile)
or install a kernel with large file support. (2.4.0-preXX will do, there
are patches for 2.2.x too)

In earlier versions those errors were silently ignored.
