Net::FTP : Passive mode does not work as documented.

A few of our servers reject connection via Net::FTP with the error
"PASV is disabled"
tries to establish the connection via passive mode, but the serverFrom the wording I guessed that this means that our client program
only supports active mode.
mode is the default when creating a Net::FTP object (unless oneFrom the perldoc documentation of Net::FTP I concluded that active
explicitly sets Passive=>0 in the constructor, which we don't). So
it seems that the documentation for Net::FTP does not match the
implementation.
(Additional note:
To double-check this, I ran the client again, but now with setting
the environment variable FTP_PASSIVE to zero. The transfer
now works.
Similarily, if I set FTP_PASSIVE to 1 makes the error message
reappear, as does an explicit call to the pasv method).
