A further detail: Downloading by ssh works. It's only uploading (sending files 
from my laptop to the server) which crashes gFTP. Weird. Again, I'll be more 
than happy to do some experiments for the developers if there's anything I can 
do to help.

Additional details: I'm compiling and running gFTP on a Xandros Linux 2.5 
system (was Xandros 2.0 when I first encountered this problem).
