No very good reason, but I've occasionally wanted to frob it to see if it
makes any difference to problems I'm having, and it was easy.
Tested that it does actually cause keepalives on Windows (with tcpdump);
should also work on Unix. Not implemented on Mac (does nothing), but then
neither is TCP_NODELAY.
Quite a big checkin, much of which is adding `keepalive' alongside `nodelay'
in network function calls.

account of coroutines and used local variables over a crFoo. I believe the
impact was cosmetic, affecting the speeds reported in the Event Log only.
I've put the variables `ispeed' and `ospeed' in the main ssh_tag structure,
even though they're only live for a short duration; I did this rather than
create a new state struct for ssh1_protocol() (since ssh_tag already has
short-duration junk like portfwd_strptr).

(we didn't before) - `ssh-termspeed'.
In the process, I've removed the individual controls on the Telnet and
Rlogin panels and replaced them with one on the Connection panel (since they
were backed by the same storage anyway).
The terminal speeds sent in SSH are logged in the Event Log.

taken place. Bug was trivially reproducible as a NULL-dereference
segfault by making any SSH2 connection with DH gex disabled. Should

functions have sprouted `**errorstr' arguments, which if non-NULL can
return a textual error message. The interface additions are patchy and
ad-hoc since this seemed to suit the style of the existing interfaces.
I've since realised that most of this is masked by sanity-checking that
gets done before these functions are called, but it will at least report
MAC failures and the like (tested on Unix), which was the original point
of the exercise.
Note that not everyone who could be using this information is at the
moment.

sk_new() on invocation; these functions become responsible for (eventually)
freeing it. The caller must not do anything with 'addr' after it's been passed
in. (Ick.)
Why:
A SOCKS5 crash appears to have been caused by overzealous freeing of
a SockAddr (ssh.c:1.257 [r2492]), which for proxied connections is
squirreled away long-term (and this can't easily be avoided).
It would have been nice to make a copy of the SockAddr, in case the caller has
a use for it, but one of the implementations (uxnet.c) hides a "struct
addrinfo" in there, and we have no defined way to duplicate those. (None of the
current callers _do_ have a further use for the SockAddr.)
As far as I can tell, everything _except_ proxying only needs addr for the
duration of the call, so sk_addr_free()s immediately. If I'm mistaken, it
should at least be easier to find the offending free()...

OSU VMS SSH server <http://kcgl1.eng.ohio-state.edu/~jonesd/ssh/>.
The changelog appears to indicate that the server was fixed for pwplain1 at
1.5alpha4, and for IGNORE and DEBUG messages at 1.5alpha6. However I'm going
to go on the reports we've had as I haven't tested this; and they indicate
only that 1.5alpha6 is known not to require any bug compatibility modes.
(I wasn't sure whether to add this at all, given that upgrading to version
OSU_1.5alpha6 is an easy way to fix the problem. However, there is precedent
for adding detection for old versions of servers which have since been fixed.)

a result, ssh.c now needs to be prepared for zlib_decompress_block

with the crc32() function in the zlib interface. (Not that PuTTY
itself _uses_ zlib, but on Unix it's linked against libgtk which
uses libpng which uses zlib. And zlib has poor namespace management
so it defines this ridiculously intrusive function name. Arrrrgh.)

callback function; it may return 0 to indicate that it doesn't have
an answer _yet_, in which case it will call the callback later on
when it does, or it may return 1 to indicate that it's got an answer
right now. The Windows agent_query() implementation is functionally
unchanged and still synchronous, but the Unix one is async (since
that one was really easy to do via uxsel). ssh.c copes cheerfully
with either return value, so other ports are at liberty to be sync
or async as they choose.

of magical things the user might want to ask the backend to do. In

provide at least a stub form of update_specials_menu().

mallocing the size of the wrong structure type, and will also make

opaque to all platform-independent modules and only handled within
per-platform code. `Filename' is there because the Mac has a magic
way to store filenames (though currently this checkin doesn't
support it!); `FontSpec' is there so that all the auxiliary stuff
such as font height and charset and so on which is needed under
Windows but not Unix can be kept where it belongs, and so that I can
have a hope in hell of dealing with a font chooser in the forthcoming
cross-platform config box code, and best of all it gets the horrid
font height wart out of settings.c and into the Windows code where
it should be.
The Mac part of this checkin is a bunch of random guesses which will
probably not quite compile, but which look roughly right to me.
Sorry if I screwed it up, Ben :-)
