Because I couldn't get wput to work, I looked for an alternative and found: ncftp.
More specifically ncftpput seemed to do almost what wput was designed to do. Most importantly for me, it didn't crash like wput. And indeed it manages to upload only those files that haven't changed using the -z option:
ncftpput -z -u user -p pass ftp.mydomain.com dir/name files-to-upload...

mirror -c <source> <dest>
exit
