I was seeing the same thing so when I saw this I upgraded ports and  
just rebuilt with:

# $FreeBSD: ports/ftp/proftpd/Makefile,v 1.92 2006/11/15 19:22:23 shaun Exp $

I restarted proftpd and am still seeing the same problem.  A few lines  
from my log file follow:

Nov 15 17:07:33 conejoblanco.info proftpd[2108] 189.141.53.49: ProFTPD

Hopefully this is still the old port but if not, is anyone else still  
seeing this?  I'm using ldap for auth and running FreeBSD  
6.2-PRERELEASE up to date and no old librariesI'm running or includes.

Any suggestions appreciated,  Thanks,

ed
