A little quote from this URL:
http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html#CURLOPTFTPPORT

   "Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
    get the IP address to use for the ftp PORT instruction."

IOW, "21" is completely wrong there. For most cases and purposes, passing a
"-" is fine.
