Looking at the ftp server log (proftpd), I see that instead of my user
name curftpfs (by means of curl) sends each time different URL parts. For example:

========================CUT========================================
USER denis: Login successful.

Of course it gives access denied message almost every time I try to read
files from ftp.

Going back to curl 7.17.0 solves the problem. So it's new curl version
bug.
