Indeed, the following from a Debian (unstable release) setup through
freenet6:

lftp seems to work to connect, but as soon as i attempt an ls, it
segfaults:

[gnea@garson] [~] grep dns .lftprc
set dns:order inet6 inet
[gnea@garson] [~] lftp
lftp :~> o ftp6.netbsd.org
lftp ftp6.netbsd.org:~> cd .
cd ok, cwd=/
lftp ftp6.netbsd.org:/> ls
Segmentation fault
[gnea@garson] [~]

I'll need to sit down and debug this later or see if there is a new
version around the corner which fixes that, it's not a very big concern
at this point in time.  OTOH, it could be a malformed option set in
.lftprc
