- Telnet has been massively hacked up for this release.
-
- It presently requires a C++ compiler (gcc 2.7.2 or higher
- recommended), but not libg++ or libstdc++. That is, unless you went to
- special effort to not install the C++ compiler when you installed gcc,
- you'll be fine.
-
- Large amounts of further hacking are expected. If you're interested in
- working on it, please contact me, as diffs are likely to become
- useless very quickly.
-
- Support for assorted old/broken systems has been dropped. Some such
- support may be reinstated in the future once the code has been cleaned
- up sufficiently. On the other hand, it may not.
-
- Known bugs/shortcomings at this point:
-
- - Under some circumstances it can theoretically encounter a
- buffer overflow condition and drop data on the floor. If
- anyone actually observes this ``in the wild'' I'd appreciate
- knowing the circumstances. I'm also not convinced the old
- behavior was any better.
- - Various of the debug/trace modes don't work. This probably
- doesn't matter to anyone not actually coding on it.
