Attempting to access files on a machine running QNX 4.25 using ange-ftp from
Emacs 22.1.1 on FreeBSD fail, as illustrated by the following contents of
the ftp buffer after attempting to fetch a remote file "/wbp@maple:.emacs":
--------------------
ftp> open maple

user "wbp" Turtle Power!

230 User wbp logged in.

--------------------

Possible patch:

Changing line 732 in ange-ftp.el as follows:

732c732
<         "^22[789] .*[Pp]assive\\|^200 EPRT\\|^500 .*EPRT")
---
>         "^22[789] .*[Pp]assive\\|^200 EPRT\\|^500 .*EPRT\\|^500 .*EPSV")

I'm not sure if the above is the whole answer, however, since there is
still a warning:

  Warning! Unable to get home directory

(The following is the ftp buffer contents with the patch:)
