I must have been working too much because I have written to the wrong
mailing list :-)
Sorry

Sasha, which FTPlib are we talking about? I don't know of any ftp library
that uses FreeTDS.

As to your question, whether "it would make sense" to support MDTM, I would
think the FTPlib folks would want to answer that. I don't see how the
choice would affect FreeTDS one way or the other. FreeTDS is not sensitive
to filesystem timestamps.
