Hi,

It seems that when ftp is build from pkgsrc's bootstrap on Mac OS X, it 
doesn't work with IPv6:

/usr/local/bin/ftp -a ftp.netbsd.org
...
230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> ls
ftp: bind: Can't assign requested address

/usr/local/bin/ftp -a -4 ftp.netbsd.org
...
ftp> ls
227 Entering Passive Mode (204,152,190,13,244,213)
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for '/bin/ls'.
total 22

-rw-r--r--  1 0    wheel         14 Nov 20  2003 .newmessage

Of course, Mac OS X's ftp works fine with IPv6.

OS X 10.3.5, pkgsrc from today.

Anyone?
