Previously logxfer() used to record bogus pathnames to the log
in some cases, namely, when cwd was / or "name" was absolute.

instead of the disk size of the file sent. Since the log file
is intended to provide data for anonymous ftp traffic accounting,
the disk size of the file isn't really informative in this case.

Do not unconditionally fork() after accept(). accept() can
return -1 due to an interrupted system call (i.e. SIGCHLD).
If we fork in that case ftpd can get into an
accept()/SIGCHLD/fork/[fail]/repeat loop.

like matching anonymous FTP data traffic with a single ipfw(8)
rule:
ipfw add ... tcp from any to any uid ftp
Note that the control connection socket still belongs to the
user ftpd(8) was started from, usually root.

Renaming a file is effectively a way to modify it.
For instance, if a malicious party is unable to delete or overwrite
a sensitive file, they can nevertheless rename it to a hidden name
and then upload a troyan horse under the guise of the old file name.

Rationale:
SIGURG is configured by ftpd to interrupt system calls, which is useful
during data transfers. However, SIGURG could interrupt I/O on the
control channel as well, which was mistaken for the end of the session.
A practical example could be aborting the download of a tiny file,
when the abort sequence reached ftpd after ftpd had passed the file
data to the system and returned to its command loop.

don't reveal the info in reply to the SYST command.
Get rid of using the "unix" macro at the same time. It was a rather
poor way to check if the system was Unix since there were quite a
few Unix clones out there whose cc didn't define "unix" (e.g.,
NetBSD.) It was also sensitive to the C standard used, which caused
unnecessary trouble: With -std=c99, it should have been "__unix__",
and so on.
