changes.
* RFC 1738 says that if logging on to an FTP server puts you in a directory
other than '/', the way to specify a file relative to '/' in a URL (let's use
"/bin/ls" in this example) is "ftp://host/%2Fbin/ls". Wget needs to support
this (and ideally not consider "ftp://host//bin/ls" to be equivalent, as that
would equate to the command "CWD " rather than "CWD /"). To accomodate people
used to broken FTP clients like Internet Explorer and Netscape, if
"ftp://host/bin/ls" doesn't exist, Wget should try again (perhaps under
control of an option), acting as if the user had typed "ftp://host/%2Fbin/ls".
* If multiple FTP URLs are specified that are on the same host, Wget should
re-use the connection rather than opening a new one for each file.
