Sorry to be critical but you really do need to check the return value
from malloc() and realloc(). I would also replace the ascending goto
with a while loop. Other than that it looks good.

As an example, I want to be able to transmit an
SMF file (which I believe contains binary data) to
the PC, and then have a PC program to process
the SMF file. The PC program must handle the
RDW itself, but that's all.
I believe that is even RECFM=VBS. Does FTP RDW
do something reasonable with the spanning?
Each segment comes in separately, just as it is on the file. FTP does not
reassemble a spanned record into a single record. So your code must
reassemble the entire record from the segments. I have C code which does
this. If you (or others) would like to look at it, it is available as a
"gist" on GitHub via the URL:
https://gist.github.com/JohnArchieMckown/8ae2fb6f457eaf8d6d7b
Despite its being designed to run under z/OS, it will compile using gcc on
Linux. I don't do Windows programming. I don't contend that it is the best
code in the world. But it worked in my minor testing.
IBM's ftp rdw is an excellent file format.
Note that the PC program that handles the SMF
records can also be uploaded to the mainframe
and it continues to work, at least if you are using
PDPCLIB as your C library.
And it handles the spanned records reasonably?
