 Yeah, looks like mostly a documentation problem.

 The ftpchroot(5) man page, which is also the ftpusers(5) man page, 
 indicates that it is for controlling ftpd(8). The ftpusers(5) man page 
 references ftpd.conf(5), which as Vadim Goncharov stated, is only used 
 by lukemftpd(8). If two ftp daemons are going to be included in the base 
 system, both of which use ftpchroot and ftpusers but parse them 
 differently, the man pages for those files should describe how they are 
 used by each of the two daemons.

 As a side note, it sounds like I can get the behavior I was looking for 
 by using lukemftpd, rather than ftpd.
