The old ftp-proxy is not transparent.  It directs the data connections to 
and from the firewall itself, instead of the real endpoint FTP server.  
The new ftp-proxy does not accept that.  (it behaves like a 'strict' ftp 
client itself).

Workarounds are as follows
- run old ftp-proxy on both 3.8 and 4.0
- run new ftp-proxy on both 3.8 and 4.0
- run old ftp-proxy with -n so that at least passive mode works

An option for new ftp-proxy to accept data connections to another IP then 
that of the control connection is on my TODO...  but that's it.
