I did use the "goto oldway;" and the problem went away. I tried to look at
/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c sendfile implementation but it is too complex
for me :-(. I tried ktrace on ftpd but only saw the call to sendfile(2).
If you give me some guidance I can try to look into problem deeper. I
don't have any experience in kernel debugging but would like to learn it.
