George,

Here's a patch that should be complete lukemftpd(8) removal:

http://people.freebsd.org/~wkoszek/patches/no-lukemftpd.patch.bz2

Just to describe -- those elements are gone:

- src/libexec/lukemftpd

- lukemftpd's entry in src/libexec/Makefile

- src/contrib/lukemftpd 

- lukemftpd lines in inetd.conf(8)

It survived buildworld and installworld stage.

Thanks,
