    Protocol regarding size of parameters.

  * Split all getstats() calls for the various platforms into
    stats-xxx.c like files.

4.2.1.18:

4.2.1.17:
  * Change of version numbering of the Uptime Client.
    Read the README for an explanation.
  * Updated client for the Uptimes Protocol 4.2.
    For details: http://www.uptimes.net/stuff/protocol.html
  * Added initial attempts at support for a configuration file.
    In other words: it's there, but it's dirty. Love it!
  * A better Makefile.
  * Code & code layout cleanup.
  * Updated INSTALL and README files.

4.16:
  * Implemented a patch from Shane Kerr <shane@time-travellers.org>:
    - check malloc() return, and plug memory leak from base64 encoding- use
      syslog() to log runtime errors, since stdout and stderr are closed
    - wrap write to socket in a loop, since write()/send() on sockets do not
      necessarily send the entire packet
    - likewise for read
    - fix non-terminated string read into variable (rec)
    - fix broken check of strstr() return...s + 4 will never be false,
      unless strstr() happens to return -4.  :)
    - output error returns in Linux information retrieval
    - add correct checks to fscanf() of /proc files
    - avoid possible division by zero (hey, it could happen)
    - add proper check for open of "/proc/loadavg"
  * Added some comments to functions
  * Added some more syslog() calls

    more descriptive.

  * AIX support.

4.09:

  * Some minor changes

4.06:
  * Rather dirty fix for Linux uptime wraparounds :-)

  * Removed redundant getstats() who would just call getstats<PLATFORM>().
  * Ultrix support, by Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>.
  * *BSD loadavg support, by Simon Burge.
  * Proxy support enhancements, by Simon Burge.

4.05:
  * Fixed compiler errors in Warren's *BSD code. (sorry dude :-)

4.04:
  * The Host ID can be compiled in the executable, but can also be provided on
    the commandline.
