This appears to be a 'dl' type listing. If you manually set the listing type
with:
(efs-add-listing-type 'unix:dl "ftp.icce.rug.nl" "anonymous")
Then efs doesn't have too many problems with most of the directories and
files. It does seem to have problems with listing lines that are so long that
they are split over 2 lines, however.
I don't know why efs apparently doesn't auto-recognise this type of listing.
I'll look into it.
