note: this is not part of the daily smoketest that would be a blocker if
failing.  I haven't done the extended embedding tests in quite sometime.  This
may have been around for while.  Is ftp handling supported in mfcembed and
gtkembed?  gtkembed has difficulty with ftp also....seee bug # 121476

The problem is that the directory viewer (the thing that renders
application/http-index-format) is part of appcomps.dll and we don't ship that in
the embedding build on that principle that it adds too much bloat. I recall a
bug which discussed this issue in the past and may still be open so I'll try and
find it.

For now I will dup the GTK bug 121476 against this and rename it.

Yes, this is a dupe of a bug I have. I only have disk space for one tree,
though. so I can't work on it ATM. It is next on my list, though.
