Please continue working on the bug report at the URL above. Until
now, there have been some additions but no fix yet at the time I
send this mail.

For now, the safest way to avoid the traceback is to disable the
cache on Windows directly after the connection by coding
something like

    import sys

    host = ftputil.FTPHost(server, user, password)
    if sys.platform == 'win32':
        host.stat_cache.disable()

    ...

    host.close()

Because of the possible performance drawbacks of disabling the
cache, you might prefer to use other workarounds for your
specific code.

I'll notify you if I know more of the nature of the bug and thus
know a fix or at least more specific workarounds which can be
included in ftputil.

Happy Easter days! :-)

Best regards,
Stefan
