I wanted to get to -- "software caused connection abort" and friends --
are going to be more involved (probably requiring some cross-platform
notion of help contexts), and these ones hardly seem worth the effort.
Still, I've done it now.
Side-effect: Pageant now uses the same `hinst' and `hwnd' globals as
everything else. Tested basic functionality.

still only used for the host key popups. Side-effects:
- requested_help is a winstuff.h global
- Pageant now defines winstuff.h globals
(Also, my previous fix to my improved host-key dialogs only got the "changed"
case, not the "unknown" case. Some days I shouldn't be let near a keyboard.)

appropriate context help, iff the help file is present. (Shame it's prey to
`winhelp-crash'.)
(I've perpetrated a widening of visibility of `hwnd'; the alternative, putting
it into a frontend handle, seemed too likely to cause maintenance trouble if
we don't also _use_ that frontend handle everywhere we now use the global
`hwnd'.)

deal with rekeys at all: they totally ignore mid-session KEXINIT
sent by the client. Hence, a new bug entry so we don't try it.

of polishing to bring them to what I think should in principle be
release quality. Unlike the unfix.org patches themselves, this
checkin enables IPv6 by default; if you want to leave it out, you
have to build with COMPAT=-DNO_IPV6.
I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

(which will gain more content anon).
Retire BUG_SSH2_DH_GEX and add a backwards-compatibility wart, since we never
did find a way of automatically detecting this alleged server bug, and in any
case there was only ever one report (<3D91F3B5.7030309@inwind.it>, FWIW).
Also generalise askcipher() to a new askalg() (thus touching all the
front-ends).
I've made some attempt to document what SSH key exchange is and why you care,
but it could use some review for clarity (and outright lies).

revert to the old behaviour.

long last to move all the Windows-specific source files down into a
`windows' subdirectory. Only platform-specific files remain at the
top level. With any luck this will act as a hint to anyone still
contemplating sending us a Windows-centric patch...
