The rules for FTP are somewhat specific, as it is necessary for them to be. To have FTP links followed from HTML documents, you must specify `-f' (`--follow-ftp'). If you do that, FTP links will span hosts even if `-H' is not set. Option `--relative-only' (`-L') has no effect on FTP whatsoever.
However, domain acceptance (`-D') and suffix rules (`-A'/`-R') apply normally.
