In GNU Emacs 18.52.3 of Tue Apr 11 1989 on omaha1 (berkeley-unix)
I just discovered the use of ftp-find-file, ftp-write-file. I have
found a bug in the latter. When I use ftp-find-file to get a file over the
net it correctly sets itself up so the save-buffer calls ftp-write-file.
Now here is the bug.
The file gets correctly written across the net. I know it does
because I remotely logged in on the other machine and cat'ed it. However
the buffer does not get marked as unmodified. For reference I am running
on a SUN-3 running SUN OS 4.0.3 and the remote machine is a SUN-386i
running SUN OS 4.0.1. I looked into the code in ftp.el and found what
appears to be a check to set the state correctly but it fails for an
unknown reason.
