predictable /tmp files (static prefix + process number) which are
overwritten blindly, and follow links.
These workarounds change it from a process number to a very random
(9999 with tons of decimal places) number.

the `-literal' after the closing .Ed.
Where this happens, use ``.Bd -unfilled'' with ``.It Li'' to dodge
the problem - it looks better too.

to be clever by avoiding the 'check all domains in the search list'
cycle in certain cases, but this would lose if handed a name like
"foo.ctr" which refers to an FQDN of "foo.ctr.columbia.edu". If
"columbia.edu" is in the search list in /etc/resolv.conf then the
DNS lookup code should resolve it, but it didn't.
the device is successfully opened. If we fail to open it,
mention the fact.
Also go back into command mode as soon as the device is closed
rather than waiting for the user to type something before noticing.
(see the new ``set callback'' and ``set cbcp'' commands)
o Add a ``cbcp'' log level and mbuf type.
o Don't dump core when \T is given in ``set login'' or
``set hangup''.
o Allow ``*'' and blanks as placeholders in ppp.secret and
allow a fifth field for specifying auth/cbcp dialback
parameters.
o Remove a few extraneous #includes
o Define the default number of REQs (restart counter) in defs.h
rather than hardcoding ``5'' all over the place.
o Fix a few man page inconsistencies.
snprintf function itself is still #ifdef'd out by conf.h. This allows this
program to link when compiled without optimization. With optimization,
the call to quad_to_string gets removed by the compiler. Unfortunately
the linker still links in the quad_to_string function even though it
isn't called. 8-(
consider it a exit failure if it doesn't work. This means that root
processes can safely get the lock, but normal processes can still use
the 'pw' utility to get information (which may change out from under
them.)
from PR/6787, but allow non-root users to use pw to get password
information. However, this should be safe since the fixes for
disallowing multiple instances from modifying the DB are still intact.

do TLD *before* processing the config request as
TLD initialises the peers LCP values.
It's strange that an IRC isn't required here - but
I'll bow to the wisdom of the rfc.
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading
the command from ppp.linkup.
We can now run the following lines and get the expected
results:
set ifaddr 1.2.3.4/0 5.6.7.8/0
add default HISADDR
where a route is added immediately in auto mode and the
whole thing is delayed 'till the IP numbers have been
agreed in other modes.
Essentially, ppp.linkup is no longer required.

o Deal correctly with both sides wanting CHAP.
o Output a warning if we're using an empty ``authname''. This is
*not* what we want to do.
-current (Thanks Harald). However, on my attempt to try this on -STABLE,
I found that when forwarding to another host the actual messages gets lost.
This is due to a wrong index because when the -v option was added, the
indexes shifted one place.
