With that being said, I can create a test for this if you believe it's necessary.

I took another stab on the test and it turned out to be easier than I originally anticipated. I, however, decided to take a safer approach and don't use FtpServer` from `test/jdk/sun/net/www/ftptest` test-library, and instead introduced a test-specific mock server in the test code. I'm running the test multiple times on `{windows,linux,macosx}-x64` to check how stable it's in our environment, so far there are no failures.
