Found it! In 6.5.2 ftp.c :

      sendf(data->firstsocket, data, "PORT %d,%d,%d,%d,%d,%d\n",

should be

      sendf(data->firstsocket, data, "PORT %d,%d,%d,%d,%d,%d\r\n",
                                         RETURN NEEDED ------^

Seems that the local ftpd's were forgiving about the lack of a proper end of
line sequence, but my guess is the PIX firewall's ftp fixup logic was not
tolerant. Not surprisingly, none of the other fixes I tried (such as moving
TYPE I earlier) had any effect. I checked the rest of the ftp.c program and
there were no other occurrences of this typo in sendf() statements.

Cheers!
