>Description:
'cd 4*' aborts with error.  the ftp.freebsd.org ftp server
                refuses to accept globs in the 'cd' command.

>How-To-Repeat:
ftp ftp.freebsd.org:
                4.8-RELEASE/
                $ cd '4*' should be sufficient to enter 4.8-RELEASE/ ...

>Fix:
allow glob matching in the ftp.freebsd.org's ftp server.
