That was the intention.  It appears this problem was already present,
but it wasn't noticed, because the code was only used for uploading
until now.  The fix is simple:

*** CopyMove.py~	Thu Mar  4 19:38:26 2004

!         except aapnetrc.NetrcParseError, e:
              pass
  
      # Try to open the connection to the ftp server.

              else:
                  user, acct, passwd = res
!         except (IOError, aapnetrc.NetrcParseError), e:
              pass
  
      # Try to open the connection to the ftp server.
