Summary:                    ftpget fetches 0 bytes if ftp server does not
support SIZE command
Description: 
busybox 1.01 ftpget issues a SIZE command, and if it fails, falls through
and calls bb_copyfd_size() with filesize = 0. 

The correct behavior would be to disable continuing an interrupted
download, but fetch the file from the start.

wget, btw, does behave correctly.

The ftp server that caused this is the default one shipped with solaris
SunOS 5.8.

patch that fixes this is attached.
