I believe the author meant he had "poorly implemented features that
openbsd's tftp lacked" when he said he had "fixed openbsd's bugs".
Debian got their description from the readme/changelog of this
package.

the traditional gnu style with a few features poorly implemented and
handfuls of bugs sprinkled about.

Now I understand why portable SSH is made for the masses, some things
you can't trust people to "fix" on their own.
