that the SSH-2 server is happy with. Fixed, and since I'm here, fix
`pubkeyfile-and-pageant' as well (for SSH-1 and SSH-2).
Also, in SSH-2, we now reexamine "methods that can continue" for every
Pageant key offer, which is technically more correct although it seems
unlikely that it was causing any real problems.
(It's not entirely pretty, but neither was the old code. We could probably
do with some sort of abstraction for public/private keys to avoid carting
lots of fiddly bits of data around.)

This was a bit rushed, and could doubtless be improved.
Also fix a couple of things I noted on the way, including:
- "pscp -ls" wasn't documented
- Windows XP wasn't mentioned enough

caused when an active connection times out due to outgoing data
exceeding its maximum number of retries, and mention that this can
occur even when you didn't think you'd sent anything due to rekeys
and/or keepalives.
Unix generates ETIMEDOUT in this situation. Windows, it turns out
after doing an actual experiment by disabling my firewall, generates
ECONNABORTED! So _that's_ what it means under Windows. I wish I'd
done this experiment years ago now.

discussed. Use Barrett and Silverman's convention of "SSH-1" for SSH protocol
version 1 and "SSH-2" for protocol 2 ("SSH1"/"SSH2" refer to ssh.com
implementations in this scheme). <http://www.snailbook.com/terms.html>

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.

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'.)

Note default circumstances of cipher warning. (I haven't bothered with the
similar kex warning since it doesn't come up in the default configuration,
and is in any case unlikely to be common.)

line for every single .but file at the bottom of each page of the
HTML PuTTY docs. However, we can't _always_ replace that with a
single SVN revision, because there isn't always one available (SVN
still allows mixed working copies in which some files are
deliberately checked out against a different revision).
Hence, here's a mechanism for doing better. It uses `svnversion .'
to determine _whether_ a single revision number adequately describes
the current directory, and replaces all the version IDs with that if
so. If it can't do that, it uses the version IDs as before.
Also, this allows an explicit version string to be passed on the
make command line which will override _both_ these possibilities, so
that release documentation can be clearly labelled with the release
version number.

is not the same thing as ECONNABORTED, so I've removed the `we're a
bit confused about this, send us details' text. And someone has just
been confused by `connection timed out', so I've added that too.
