If the server sends the file exactly as stored there, and the file is stored
without CR/LF line endings, then the server is not converting the line ends
on download. The canonical FTP ASCII transfer mode has CR/LF line endings.
If the server is not converting them on downloads in TYPE A mode, then the
server is at fault.
