Had a look at the code:
[..]
if( set_url[0] == 'f' )
conn->proto = PROTO_FTP;
else if( set_url[0] ==
'h' )
conn->proto = PROTO_HTTP;
[..]
and
[..]
if( conn->proto == PROTO_FTP )
serv = getservbyname( "ftp", "tcp" );
else
serv = getservbyname( "www", "tcp" );
[..]
or, on Darwin:
[..]
if( conn->proto == PROTO_HTTP )
conn->port = 80;
else
conn->port = 21;
[..]
m( m( m(
This was not fixed at all before 2.10.
Ouch.
