Yes, your redefinition is roughly what I have proposed. However, you use
--group-directories-first, which should have a similar effect as my
patch. So I doubt that ange-ftp-switches-ok is responsible for the
problem.

Could you pls send a backtrace when the error happens to you?

Best regards, Michael.
