Thanks.

As I've found, problems seem to be rampant when the src box is fast 
enough to fill the pipes, not a normal condition when accessing a 
redhat server.  Slower sites that stumble enough to let the pipes 
flush seem to do better in that regard.  I have no such problems that 
I'm aware of when using gftp, which is why it seems odd that I cannot 
use it against that particular site.  I had to go get the SRPMS 
disk4, 5 times before the md5sum was good.  To my frugal mind, thats 
a waste of bandwidth for everyone concerned.
