Good question.  I don't see anything in ftp.rb, but I could be missing
something.  I'd be in favor of FTP#mput and FTP#mget methods myself.

Indulge me - try using a non-block form of Net::FTP and see if it makes
any difference:

cindexfiles = Dir.glob("*_*-*.pdf")
cindexfiles.each do |cindexfile|
   ftp = Net::FTP.open('mpc.bna.com')
   ftp.debug_mode = true
   ftp.passive = true
   ftp.login('peterb','pbail')
   ftp.chdir('/data/ps2000test')
   ftp.putbinaryfile(cindexfile)
end
