You mean MacPerl 5.6.1a5 is much faster with Net::FTP than 5.2.0r4 is?

It is no longer scheduled, the bug has been fixed (locally, not yet
committed, as if anyone needs it to be committed :) and closed.

Yeah, I won't change the code; it might help if someone sends Graham a
patch, if they haven't already, though. Patches often speed up the
process. :)
If he gets it released before the MacPerl 5.6.1r1 release, then there's a
good chance I will get his code in the release. I plan on updating all the
extra modules before final release.
