SubjectNetKit ftp bug (yes offtopic, but who maintains it now?)
I can't find anybody maintaining a current NetKit like NetKit-0.09
(2 years old). There is a bug in ftp that I can demonstrate. It
can be easily fixed, but I don't know who maintains this stuff now.

Script started on Thu Jan 7 10:34:14 1999
# mv .netrc NETRC
# cp /dev/zero .netrc
^C
# ftp quark
Connected to quark.analogic.com.
220 quark FTP server (Version wu-2.4(6) Tue Aug 27 22:47:54 EDT 1996) ready.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
# exit

The software presumes that no files will ever get corrupted. The bug
causes problems that destroy unrelated data so `gdb` was not very
helpful in discovering the cause.

Cheers,
Dick Johnson
