Have ever experienced such work before me.
At that time, as well as Proftpd,
by format string limitation that is found in wu-ftpd and so on, was mistaking.
It is that is client limitation that was stupid justly.
Format string bug happens in ftp client by source.
Can see this now.
bash-2.04$ ftp 127.0.0.1
Connected to 127.0.0.1.

Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Stupid ftp client program may have to be re-formed.
Desire there is no mistake ...
If use a debugging tool, can see that have been expired in client.
