     If the code you added is the reason we can't get to grape anymore,
   perhaps you could take another look at the way simtel20 does it. They
   output a clear message "too many users, try later" or something like
   that.

You mean like this:

image.soe [1] %ftp grape.ecs
Connected to grape.ecs.clarkson.edu.
220 grape.ecs.clarkson.edu FTP version 890918 NOS ready at Thu Dec 21 15:53:40 1989
331 Enter PASS command
421-Too many ANONYMOUS users at the moment.
421 Please try again later.
Login failed.
ftp> quit
image.soe [2] %

   Recently we have just been getting "connection timed out" from
   grape, which of course encourages an immediate retry.

That should *not* be happening.  Our network was down for ten hours or so
the other night, plus grape crashed this morning.  Perhaps that was the
cause of your troubles?
