New description:

 According to RFC959, the command list has 1 optional arguement: pathname.
 Cyberduck appends the option "-a" to the list command, eg "LIST -a".
 Unless there is a newer RFC that says otherwise, this behaviour is
 incorrect.

 Error message from JFTP:

 {{{
 2008-01-17 09:40:58 FTP 10.32.32.193 1651422152  Command: LIST -a Error:
 No such file or directory
 }}}

Comment (by dkocher):

 It should fallback to use the plain "LIST" command if "LIST -a" fails.
 Does it not? We use the -a option because many servers do not return files
 with a leading "." otherwise.
