'ls -al <something here>' in a command-line ftp client means to save the
result of 'ls -al' in '<something here>' .
<something here> is expanded by your FTP client. The ftp server only sees
'ls -al'. So you are probably triggering the glibc bug locally.
If you want to send a pattern and ls options, quote the space :
ls -al\ ~{
