v1.9.0 - December 22, 1994.  The program won't exit from the interactive shell
  if it's working from a tty.  For example, it won't exit if you do an mget
  on a pattern that won't match anything.  Added padding around jmp_buf's
  for SunOS.  SunOS needs sigjmp_buf's, but plenty of OS's don't support
  sigjmp_buf's yet.  Fixed the tips to reflect the new archive site.

v1.8.9 - December 20, 1994.  Can now set "passive" user variable, or use
  passive command to toggle PASV/PORT ftp.  Debug mode now prints remote
  responses.  Can now get around buggy FTP servers like boombox.micro.umn.edu,
  that give back invalid port numbers to PASV.

v1.8.8 - December 19, 1994.  Now falls back to port FTP if passive FTP fails.

cccddd3572 (a) there's no reason for PASSIVEMODE to be conditionally compiled since it's
controlled by a runtime switch.
(b) add '-P' to toggle passive mode from the command line
(c) turn on passive mode by default
	- passive mode ftp works on all but a few servers out there
	- it's easy to disable
	- no, standard ftp should not run with passive enabled by default,
	  but that doesn't matter because I've already fixed standard mode
	  ftp to take a switch

This really should have been implemented as a ncftp "set" command instead
of carrying over the same hack that was done to ftp.  I will go back and fix
it some day.

66f8414941 Ye GODS! What I had to go through to make this thing exit with a non-zero
return status when a transfer failed!  Hopefully, the next release will
do this more elegantly and make these changes short-lived.
