Might not be important but someone should comment on this :)

Nod.. I wouldn't find it THAT strange for it to pass from linux client to
windows client. If you check inside ftp.exe on a windows box, you can find the
following string:

@(#) Copyright (c) 1983 The Regents of the University of California.

And checking the strings on /bin/ftp, you can find the following:

@(#) Copyright (c) 1985, 1989 Regents of the University of California.

Doesn't this look very very interesting? :)
