An update:

Before using Romano's patch, I was consistently only able to copy ~250 
files from FTP to a local drive.  After Romano's patch, I was consistently 
able to copy ~1500 files.  And it isn't failing because of a lack of memory 
any longer.  It is getting the "Smooth Copy has performed an illegal 
operation" error message or "Crash -- should not happen" from Rebol.
