Is ftp://host.dom:/path a legal URL?
I got a bug report from a user trying to access:
ftp://ftp.ccs.neu.edu:/pub/people/crista/motorola.ps
Is the : without a port illegal?
[[ Actually, the original URL was:
file://ftp.ccs.neu.edu:/pub/people/christa/motorola.ps
which gets coerced into 'ftp:' by the library currently. ]]
