This has been the home of ftp since the machines inception, AFAIK.
The link was something that I added when the new sourceware was
brought online.

I don't know how the symlink evaporated.  I did try an installation of
proftpd to see what would happen but the RPM intallation failed.  It
sure didn't look like it got far enough to do any of this type of
damage but I guess that's the probable reason for this.

Anyway, I put the link back.
