vsftpd can use the library libcap (see vsf_findlibs.sh in the source tree). It's a simple library that basically just wraps the syscalls in <linux/capability.h> and puts its API in <sys/capability.h>. vsftpd will just make the syscalls itself if <sys/capability.h> doesn't exist (see sysdeputil.c in the vsftpd source).
