The bug seems to depend on whether /usr/bin/ftp
re-writes certain server responses ...

MacOS and Debian BUG: 	(ange-ftp-get-pwd "ftp.gnu.org" "ftp") ==> (nil . "Remote directory: /")
CentOS and Ubuntu OK: 	(ange-ftp-get-pwd "ftp.gnu.org" "ftp") ==> (t . "257 \"/\"")

... apparently emacs is blind to the re-written PWD reply.
