New submission from Robert Xiao <nneonneo at gmail.com>:

On Python 3.2, calling abort() on an ftplib.FTP object will cause an exception:

>>> ftp = ftplib.FTP('localhost')
>>> ftp.abort()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/ftplib.py", line 246, in abort
    self.sock.sendall(line, MSG_OOB)
TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface

The offending line, ftplib.py:246, should be replaced by
self.sock.sendall(line.encode(self.encoding), MSG_OOB)
