Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  lftp: buffer overflow detected when accessing z/VM FTP server and
  changing the working directory with `cd`

  
  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Connect with lftp to z/VM FTP server
  Machine Type = IBM/S390 3906

  lftp -u hartmafk gdlvm7.pok.ibm.com

  2. Validate correct connection:

  ls
  > BOOKM    FILE     V         65          9          1 2016-08-10 04:45:31 HAR191
  > CPFMTXA  EXCORIG  V         63        711          7 2005-10-10 07:52:28 HAR191
  > CPFMTXA  EXEC     V         63        711          7 2005-10-10 07:52:28 HAR191
  > CPFMTXA  MODORIG  V         96          3          1 2005-10-14 09:30:44 HAR191
  > CPFMTXA  MODULE   V         96          3          1 2005-10-14 09:30:44 HAR191
  > CRUISE   LASTCMDS V         88         53          1 2024-12-04 09:28:24 HAR191
  > DDOPTS   OPTIONS  V         58          1          1 2002-12-03 16:26:24 HAR191

  3. Change directory to SFS directory or minidisk:

  cd HARTMAFK.191

  without the fix, observe a crash:
  *** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
  Aborted

  with the fix, happily be in the new directory.

  
  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * The fix allocates 2 more bytes of memory, so in a constrained
  environment this could exhaust the available space and crash during
  allocation.

  ===============================================================================
  This issue can only be reproduced when lftp is compiled without debug option.

  I was able to reproduce this issue with a self compiled lftp 4.9.3 on
  s390x with the default build and with a plain ./configure, I was NOT
  able to reproduce this issue with ./configure --with-debug
