Squid 2.0-2.2.STABLE4 will hangs at the end of the FTP transmission for
some time. It will eventually recover after a long timeout but I
wouldn't bet on it. No clue how earlier versions behave.

Alexander V. Lukyanov kindly notified us on the problem and provided a
simple patch which is available from the known Squid-2.2 bugs page as
squid-2.2.stable4-ftpReadComplete.patch and included in 2.2.STABLE5 and
later Squids.
