[tpop3d-discuss] A few patches

[Chris Lightfoot]

Thanks very much for these. Some of them correct rather
embarrassing errors on my part! I've put the changes into
current CVS.

I need to spend some time fixing up tpo3pd and doing the
1.5.0 release. I'll try to set aside a bit of next weekend
for that. I've been too busy for this lately :(

The changes relating to struct initialisation aren't
right. For instance, you say

    struct sigaction sa = {{0}};

but you don't actually know that the first element of
struct sigaction is an aggregate type that can be
initialised {0}. `= {0}' is the correct way to initialise
any aggregate `as if in static storage'; gcc rather
unhelpfully produces a warning about it, though. See
