OK, so... after I wrote this I looked at the vsftpd site recommended 
by others and I'd have to say this probably is a justified swap.

The number of high end vsftpd users (including -- hint hint, 
enable_cluestick="YES" -- freebsd.org) is a pretty clear 
testimonial. I'm guessing the only reason this baby is not the base 
ftpd is its inherent GPLness.
