Now I feel a bit stupid. I checked the source and then I checked the TODO and
it made it quite clear: curl doesn't currently support the -z option on FTP

Yes, but wget uses 'LIST' (as opposed to the MDFM ) and has spent years on
refining that parser. We could theoreticly use the same approach, but it is
mighty tricky code to write and get to function correctly.

I'm afraid we can't use the wget code in curl, due to license restrictions.
