Hello again,

I managed to work around my previous problem by using the --cut-dirs=x
option.  Now I've discovered another problem that stops me dead in my
tracks.

Apparently wget does not know how to handle files larger than 2G.  Once the
transfer reaches the 2G point it asserts in retr.c, line 264.

Command line:
wget -N -r -nH -nr --cut-dirs=2 ftp://iwdf8000/d/ftp_usa/F31

Output:
--12:48:15--  ftp://iwdf8000/d/ftp_usa/F31/[email protected]
           => `F31/[email protected]'
==> CWD not required.
==> PORT ... done.    ==> RETR [email protected] ... done.
Length: -1,606,861,141

    [     <=>                           ] 2,147,447,884  580.92K/s
Assertion failed: bytes >= 0, file retr.c, line 264

abnormal program termination


Note the Length: line shows negative size.  I suppose this problem could be
addressed by switching to unsigned longs.
