Comment:

 I figured it out now: The problem is a bug in vsftpd version 3.0.2 which
 is fixed in version 3.0.3. The package can be found in Debian unstable.

 Here are basic instructions for an upgrade:
 {{{
 # add unstable to sources.list
 echo -e "## unstable\ndeb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian unstable main
 contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
 # set "stable" as default release to prevent system from updating packages
 to unstable @ apt-get upgrade
 echo "APT::Default-Release "stable";" >
 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99myDefaultRelease
 # load new package-list
 apt-get update
 # force upgrade of vsftpd to version 3.0.3
 apt-get install vsftpd=3.0.3-5
 }}}
