    Hello all,
    in these days I got a strange core dump using the ftp client.
    This core dump can only did by using the PUTTY ssh client...
    
    (Tested with putty 0.52)
    
     >root@Wayreth[~]: ftp ftp.unina.it
     >Connected to ftp.unina.it.
     >220
     >Name (ftp.unina.it:root): ^\Quit (core dumped)
     >root@Wayreth[~]:
    
    for do that, just push CTRL+ù when the user is requested...
    
    Tested system:
    -OpenBSD 3.1
    -OpenBSD 3.0
    -OpenBSD 2.9
    -FreeBSD 4.4-RC5
    -FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE
    -FreeBSD kalieye 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC
    -SunOS XXXXX 5.6 Generic_105181-30 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise
    -SunOS XXXXX 5.6 Generic_105182-30 i86pc i386 i86pc
    
    Not vulnerable:
    -Linux
    
    This bug haven't any security issue, it's only a client and not with the 
    +s flag. In these day I haven't the time to check the source code for 
    see what's is wrong, I will did it in some days...
