Sorry, you are mistaken. All it did was abort with an error if 
(port <= 0).

Since port can not be negative (anymore), the only difference is it no
longer aborts with an immediate error if (port == 0).

There is no logic to detect if atoi found a string, because according
to my man page atoi doesn't support detecting errors. The glibc info
page says atoi is obsolete, and says to use strtol instead.

So I guess these problems should get fixed too, as well as the port
number problem.

patches welcome ;-)

I see port "ftp" (21)???
