snprintf and release schedule

[Marc Slemko <ma...@znep.com>]

We need a couple of people to do an in-depth review of my buffer overflow
fixes.  Until that happens, we can't start preparations for the next beta
which, according to one of our schedules that I am hoping to stick to,
should be going out on Tuesday or so.  No, it isn't fun work reviewing
such boring changes but someone has to do it. 

If people agree with my last comments on the lingering close stuff, I
think those changes (ie. rip out all lingering close stuff, add a
shutdown() before close() in child_main) should also go in the next beta.

It was far from being in-depth, but I just looked at each change for
deliberate mistakes and found none.

+1 to ripping out lingering close.  I don't understand the need to do a
shutdown however.
