The next release of 'dftp' (v1.5) has been ready for several weeks now, but wanted to run at least one full test on it before releasing it. I think I finally got a full mirror of the system last night and am running the test as I write this. The bug you describe has been fixed. The first one, at least... I think the second is just a symptom of the first.
