Unfortunately, it does not solve the problem with all servers. We have
yet another bug open for the issue:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/649347

Daniel, could you please have a look at the following trace?

$ curl -s 'https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=457738' \
    | grep ' FTP '

Is it a server problem? Or undefined behavior caused by curl closing
the data connection prematurely?

Thanks in advance!

Kamil
