From 0b31586c7113b9b26ca0aeee9247a831b55b308c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Eric Andersen <andersen@codepoet.org>
Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2002 11:51:44 +0000
Subject: A patch from Bart Visscher <magick@linux-fan.com> to add an xconnect
 helper routine which does:         -address and port resolving 	-tries
 to connect to all resolved addresses until connected 	-uses getaddrinfo, so
 works for IPv6 too This patch also ports rdate, telnet, and wget to use the
 new xconnect function.  Thanks Bart!
