Joey, are you certain that you're looking at RFC 959? There is no 4.3.3 
section in RFC 959.

     3.4.3.  COMPRESSED MODE

        There are three kinds of information to be sent:  regular
data,
        sent in a byte string; compressed data, consisting of
        replications or filler; and control information, sent in
a
        two-byte escape sequence.  If n>0 bytes (up to 127) of
regular
        data are sent, these n bytes are preceded by a byte with
the
        left-most bit set to 0 and the right-most 7 bits
containing the
        number n.

If you think run-length-encoding compression is security, you're
even less
clued than I thought.

My mistake, I meant 4.3.3.
