Summary: urllib2 CacheFTPHandler doesn't work on multiple dirs

Initial Comment:
using the CacheFTPHandler for ftp requests in urllib2
works as expected for files in the same directory as
the original file, however, as ftpwrapper() changes the
directory only after the initial connection, any
urllib2.urlopen('ftp://...') that is in a different
directory that the initial urlopen() call will fail
with a "450: File Not Found"
