A user wrote in to point out the one in winhandl.c, and out of sheer
curiosity, I grepped the whole source base for '([a-zA-Z])\1\1' to see
if there were any others. Of course there are a lot of perfectly
sensible ones, like 'www' or 'Grrr', not to mention any amount of
0xFFFF and the iiii/bbbb emphasis system in Halibut code paragraphs,
but I did spot one more in the recently added udp.but section on
traits, and another in a variable name in uxagentsock.c.
Naturally, there's one really glaring goof I find out instants after
'git push'! If Pageant starts a watchdog subprocess which will wait
until the main process terminates and then clean up the socket, then
it had better not have that subprocess keep the standard I/O handles
open, or else commands like eval $(pageant -X) won't terminate.
I've applied the same fix in the X11 socket creation, though I think
it's less critical there.
The code in Pageant that sets up the Unix socket and its containing
directory now lives in a separate file, uxagentsock.c, where it will
also be callable from the upcoming new SSH server when it wants to
create a similar socket for agent forwarding.
While I'm at it, I've also added a feature to create a watchdog
subprocess that will try to clean up the socket and directory once
Pageant itself terminates, in the hope of leaving less cruft lying
around /tmp.
