Is ftp://host.dom:/path a legal URL?

I got a bug report from a user trying to access:

ftp://ftp.ccs.neu.edu:/pub/people/crista/motorola.ps

Is the : without a port illegal?

[[ Actually, the original URL was:

file://ftp.ccs.neu.edu:/pub/people/christa/motorola.ps

which gets coerced into 'ftp:' by the library currently. ]]
