proftpd 1.2.0pre6 patch

[tymm () COE MISSOURI EDU (Tymm Twillman)]

Before I release the exploit, I'd like to give people a chance to fix
the problem.  Here's the patch.  Note that there are other potential
problems; I've been in contact with MacGyver and a new version fixing
this and other stuff should be out within a few days (at this point I
really have no clue if there are exploits possible for the other issues
that might allow breakins; please keep up to date and upgrade as soon as
the new version is available).

Anyhow, here's the patch:

-- that's it.  Amazing how much these little things matter.
