This looks like wu-ftpd is using an INET6 address for its control port,
yet wu-ftpd doesn't actually have any support for IPv6 at present.

Are you running wu-ftpd from inetd, listening on an IPv6 address?

This would be the reason for it having an address of 0.0.0.0 for the
passive port, as it attempts to open an IPv4 socket using the address
data from the control port. As the IPv6 address will be invalid for the
IPv4 socket, it will have fallen back to the default of 0.0.0.0.
