It's not the networking, despite the fact that most of the patches were
to networking. It's the pty's that got subtly buggered, and it was so
subtly that the _only_ think that broke was incoming telnet, rlogin and
the remote exec stuff, which is why I didn't notice until I got home and
tried to connect to the university..
Thank god for ssh, which did _not_ break.
I'll be making a pre2.0.14 in just a few minutes, to get rid of the curse of
the number 13. Boy was that a unlucky number to try a final pre2.0 with ;-)
