 The patch in the PR is incorrect.  A MODE failure should not be
 ignored, as it may result in the wrong data being transferred; and it
 is bad form to use warn() or warnx() in a library.
 
 However, as a compromise, it may be acceptable to ignore a MODE
 failure if and only if the mode we tried to set was "s".
