The command LPRT is used for ipv6 over FTP, but I don't know any FTP 
servers that allow this command, maybe oftpd.

WineHQ FTP (ftp://ftp.winehq.com/pub/wine/)

I'll have to check the logs, but nothing should have changed with the
ftpd for quite some time. I havn't played with it's config in months.
I've generally be very happy with proftpd (which is what I use on
Winehq.com).
