Thanks for the report!

I've verified this. It fails when getting a file like

   ftp://example.com//top.txt

but it works if there's a directory in the root dir:

   ftp://example.com//dir/top.txt

I've created a test case that can repeat it, and I'll work on a fix.

Using a URL with an encoded slash as in

   ftp://example.com/%2Ftop.txt

works, but it still doesn't actually behave entirely correct since it then
does a RETR on "/top.txt" instead of first doing "CWD /" and then a "RETR
top.txt" ...
