I'm pretty skeptical that any crypto in telnet is worth using, but if we're
ostensibly generating keys, arc4random is strictly better than the previous
construct.

The problem is that when the parameter 'pat' is null, the function locally
allocates a NULL string but never frees it.
Instead of tracking the local alloc, it is noted that the while(*pat) never
enters when there is a local alloc.
So instead of doing the local alloc, check that 'pat' is null before the
while(*pat) loop.

20 years it is rather useless to try to correct it.

The "automatic" login feature is described as follows:
The USER environment variable holds the name of the person telnetting in.
This is the username of the person on the client machine. The traditional
behaviour is to execute login(1) with this username first, meaning that
login(1) will prompt for the password only. If login fails, login(1) will
retry, but now prompt for the username before prompting for the password.
This feature got broken by how the environment got scrubbed. Before the
change in r69825 we removed variables that we deemed dangerous. Starting
with r69825 we only keep those variable we know to be safe.
The USER environment variable fell through the cracks. It suddenly got
scrubbed (i.e. removed from the environment) while still being checked
for. It also got explicitly removed from the environment to handle the
failed login case.
The fix is to obtain the value of the USER environment variable before
we scrub the environment and used the "cached" in subsequent checks.
This guarantees that the environment does not contain the USER variable
in the end, while still being able to implement "automatic" login.

Instead of catching SIGPIPE and jumping out of the signal handler with
longjmp, ignore it and handle write errors to the local output by exiting
from there. I have changed the error message to mention the local output
instead of NetBSD's wrong "Connection closed by foreign host". Write errors
to the network were already handled by exiting immediately and this now
applies to EPIPE too.
The code assumed that SIGPIPE could only be generated by the network
connection; if it was generated by the local output, it would longjmp out of
the signal handler and write an error message which caused another SIGPIPE.

Just like rlogind, there is no need to change the ownership of the
terminal during shutdown anymore. Also don't call logwtmp, because the
login(1)/PAM is responsible for doing this. Also use SHUT_RDWR instead
of 2.
The function pow() in libmp(3) clashes with pow(3) in libm. We could
rename this single function, but we can just take the same approach as
the Solaris folks did, which is to prefix all function names with mp_.
libmp(3) isn't really popular nowadays. I suspect not a single
application in ports depends on it. There's still a chance, so I've
increased the SHLIB_MAJOR and __FreeBSD_version.

Some time ago I got some reports MPSAFE TTY broke telnetd(8). Even
though it turned out to be a different problem within the TTY code, I
spotted a small issue with telnetd(8). Instead of allocating PTY's using
openpty(3) or posix_openpt(2), it used its own PTY allocation routine.
This means that telnetd(8) still uses /dev/ptyXX-style devices.
I've also increased the size of line[]. Even though 16 should be enough,
we already use 13 bytes ("/dev/pts/999", including '\0'). 32 bytes gives
us a little more freedom.
Also enable -DSTREAMSPTY. Otherwise telnetd(8) strips the PTY's pathname
to the latest slash instead of just removing "/dev/" (e.g. /dev/pts/0 ->
0, instead of pts/0).
