I am of half a mind to just turn off all these warnings for rsh/rshd,
telnet, popper and all of the legacy code. This is the code that is
the most difficult to fix as there are lots of cases where it is not
quite as clear what we should do on errors. And, IMO, rsh/rshd/telnet
should probably be broken out from heimdal and maintained (or not
maintained) elsewhere.
