Thank you for the information, I was afraid that was what that bug was referring to. I don't know your relationship, if any with the product, but do you know if there is a plan to address this bug in the next version?

Nope. This is a known flaw in how curl does FTP ASCII transfers. See item #21

The only real fix is to patch the code to do right.
Sorry.
