I can reproduce this if the remote dir is big enough, just the numbers
are different. In one dir with < 500 files it works fine, in another
dir with > 3000 files I get between 70 and 120 repetitions.
And I have another weird effect:
$ lftp server
lftp server:>cd large-dir
cd ok, cwd=/large-dir
lftp server:/large-dir>ls | less
ls: less: Permission denied
lftp server:/large-dir>ls | less
ls: less: Permission denied
lftp server:/large-dir>ls | less
ls: less: Permission denied
lftp server:/large-dir>ls | less
ls: less: Permission denied
lftp server:/large-dir>ls | less
[...works...]
I can reproduce this with a very high probability. 4 or 5 or 10 times
in a row it fails. Then, as soon as the first `ls | less' call
succeeds, all subsequent calls succeed as well. Calling just `ls' once,
helps, too.
Unfortunately I can't reproduce it when running under strace. In that
case `ls | less' already succeeds the first time, every time I try it :(
