As I am continuing to test on various servers, trying to reproduce a "denied" error - I discovered another parsing bug at
ftp://ftp.sun.com
The root list shows:

Notice the third entry?

It is a link, but the "fields.length > MIN_FIELD_COUNT", so it tries to parse out the linkCount, which then screws with the later value parsing. So that when it gets to size, it attempts to parse "Nov" as the size.
Haven't thought of a fix yet (I'm not an FTP wiz).
