Good feature to have, and good point about telnetd including it, but
ftpd not.. this patch applies cleanly to -CURRENT as of
Sunday, June 9, ~10:30am EDT.

I'd like to include this feature to ftpd, but with a single change:
Why to print host-specific info at all in this case?  To my mind,
it's better to omit it at all on the `-h' option, so paranoid admins
can have a sound sleep :-)
