I don't think it will get into ports anytime soon based on its track record. There are better alternatives out there including OpenBSD's ftpd (vsftpd?). from http://www.proftpd.org/ Update to the ProFTPD Compromise Report [16/Feb/2011] By analyzing log files recovered from the compromised server, we can confirm that the primary FTP site was compromised earlier than originally announced. In addition to the previously reported period from 2010-Nov-28 to 2010-Dec-02, ftp.proftpd.org and the ProFTPD mirror network distributed files with malicious content on 2010-Nov-16 between about 08:00 UTC and 13:00 UTC. In the weeks since, we've made several changes to restore and improve the security of our software distribution sites. We've rebuilt the compromised server from scratch, and implemented automated daily signature checks for current releases on ftp.proftpd.org and all official mirrors.
