(65/308) 541 - FTP Plugin fails on OS/390

Unable to use FTP Plugin with OS/390.

The connection fails after FTP tries to CWD
to /"FYFEB."/. OS/390 (MVS) doesn't require the /
characters. Have attached the FTP activity log.

Note: The working directory has already been
established (see PWD).

Unfortunately AFAIK the directory listings are completely different so it requires some work to support it. Until this is the case I use Filezilla 3 which runs under Windows and Linux and supports the MVS ftp server.

However, if someone else wants to submit a patch, I can accept it, but I can't test it unless the submitter gives me a server/account to test it on.
