when talking to SOCKS 5 proxies. Configures itself transparently (if
the proxy offers CHAP it will use it, otherwise it falls back to
ordinary cleartext passwords).

ptrs and ints of different size and -Werror makes this serious).
The GTK bits are done by Colin's patch to use GINT_TO_POINTER
(thanks); the uxnet bits are done by cleaning up the rest of the
code. In particular, network.h now typedefs `OSSocket' to be a type
capable of holding whatever the OS's socket data type is that
underlies our socket abstraction. Individual platforms can make this
typedef themselves if they define OSSOCKET_DEFINED to prevent
network.h redoing it; so the Unix OSSocket is now int. Default is
still void *, so other platforms should be unaffected.

proxy-indirection network functions (name_lookup, new_connection,
new_listener) takes a `const Config *' as an argument, and extracts
enough information from it before returning to handle that
particular network operation in accordance with the proxy settings
it specifies. This involved {win,ux}net.c due to a `const'
repercussion.

CONNECT, but contains an extensible framework to allow other
proxies. Apparently SOCKS and ad-hoc-telnet-proxy are already
planned (the GUI mentions them already even though they don't work
yet). GUI includes full configurability and allows definition of
exclusion zones. Rock and roll.
