OK.  "man ftpd" suggests the following options are relevant:

      -4      When -D is specified, accept connections via AF_INET4  
socket.

      -6      When -D is specified, accept connections via AF_INET6  
socket.

      -a      When -D is specified, accept connections only on the  
specified
              address.
