you can delete the socket from anywhere in the hooks and nothing should break.
Also, the receive/transmit buffers are now regular xmalloc()'ed buffers,
not separate resources which would need shuffling around between pools.
sk_close() is gone, use rfree() instead.
have one machine publishing a route to 10.1.1.3/32 and another one
publishing a route to 10.1.1.4/32. If the first machine went down the
route to 10.1.1.4/32 was wrongly killed by the old code, leading either
to missing routes or worse to bug()s like "Router parent does not have
next hop" or just segfaults. The patch fixes this but in the long term a
redesign is required here. Note that the patch doesn't worse the
situation, instead it prevents the problems stated. The redesign is
required to handle multiple routes to small subnets properly.

Feela, I think that this is at least a good temporary fix, but it's
of course up to you to decide.
network byte order thus breaking interoperability with other routing
daemons on litte endian machines. The patch fixes this but note that
this breaks compatability with older bird installations using OSPF and
password authentication

Bad as when bird e.g. was running for two weeks and then restarted it
would take another two weeks until the peers of this router would accept
data again from this router, as the sequence number would be too low.
Changed to use the the current system time as the starting sequence
number which is a more sane start value.

for even only medium sized route table output. Fix a strange garbled
output problem in the client. The latter seems to be caused by some
library doing tcflush while there is still command output pending. So
the best fix here is to do fflush and then tcdrain. Note that this
problem occurs only under certain load situations and is not too easy to
reproduce.
