whoops "panic: realloc" I meant :)

one additional note: Net::Cmd needs to be patched for MacPerl, either like
this:
line 169
#local $SIG{"PIPE"} = 'IGNORE';# commented out for MacPerl,
# reason unknown as of 12/28/00
or this
local $SIG{"PIPE"} = 'IGNORE'
unless $^O eq 'MacOS';
which I haven't tried, since for me, commenting out the offending code works
best, but you can do it any way you like. :)
other than that, Net::FTP seems to work fine for what I'm using it for, so
far.. *crossing fingers* (:
