Like ffap.el says:

;; If you do not like these bindings, modify the variable
;; `ffap-bindings', or write your own.

So:

(ffap-bindings)
(global-set-key "\C-xd" 'dired)

or:

(eval-after-load "ffap"
  '(setq ffap-bindings
         (delq (rassoc '("\C-xd" 'dired-at-point) ffap-bindings)
               ffap-bindings)))
(ffap-bindings)

The only real bug is that this comment at the top of ffap.el
does not list dired-at-point:

;; ffap-bindings makes the following global key bindings:
;;
;; C-x C-f       find-file-at-point (abbreviated as ffap)
;; C-x 4 f       ffap-other-window
;; C-x 5 f       ffap-other-frame
;; S-mouse-3     ffap-at-mouse
;; C-S-mouse-3   ffap-menu
