Does anyone know what's wrong here+
I tried to upgrade proftpd to the latest unstable just to see if it would fix it, but it didn't.
How do I fix this?

Hi,
I've done some tests and looks like that this happens only if the directory is empty. If there are files in the directory, it reports that "File exists".
So I guess it's a bug (or a feature!) and you could notify the maintainers to take care of it.
In the meantime, you could use vsftpd that doesn't do that and IMO it's a better ftp server
