That works. Partially. Using 'hftp:use-head off' lftp correctly downloads the
directory listings and starts downloading files, but not all of them. It
seems it only mirrors the 'top-level' of the remote path I specify, i.e:

lftp sunsite.dk:~> mirror -enL --verbose=3 /mirrors/cygwin
'irroring directory `release
'irroring directory `tmp
'irroring directory `xfree
Total: 4 directories, 4 files, 0 symlinks

(not sure about the ' that replaces the 'm'. might be my terminal)

% ls -lR
./cygwin:
total 798
-rw-r--r--   1 reuters  staff        132 Feb 18 07:38 md5.sum

:/cygwin/release

:/cygwin/tmp

:/cygwin/xfree

Nothing under 'release', 'tmp' and 'xfree' is downloaded. Also, the ls-lR
output looks funny. Look at the directories: they don't show as 'drwxr-xr-x',
but as '/rwxr-xr-x'! What does the forward slash mean?
