Michal Marek introduced CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE which is used to control

the appending of the "type=" thing on FTP URLs when they are passed to a
HTTP proxy. Some proxies just don't like that appending (which is done
unconditionally in 7.17.1), and some proxies treat binary/ascii transfers
better with the appending done!

libcurl does not do a complete ASCII conversion when doing ASCII transfers
over FTP. This is a known limitation/flaw that nobody has rectified. libcurl
simply sets the mode to ascii and performs a standard transfer.
.IP CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE
Pass a long. If the value is set to 1 (one), it tells libcurl to set the
transfer mode (binary or ASCII) for FTP transfers done via an HTTP proxy, by
appending ;type=a or ;type=i to the URL. Without this setting, or it being
set to 0 (zero, the default), \fICURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT\fP has no effect when
doing FTP via a proxy. Beware that not all proxies support this feature.
(Added in 7.17.2)
.IP CURLOPT_CRLF
Convert Unix newlines to CRLF newlines on transfers.
