SILC Client 1.1-pre0 for testing

Hello,

The new SILC Client based on the new upcoming SILC Toolkit 1.1 is now 
available for testing.  This is very alpha version and huge amounts of 
problems with it are expected.  You are encouraged to test it and report 
any fatal bugs (crashes).  Download it from:

 	http://silcnet.org/priikone/silc-client-1.1-pre0.tar.gz

Compile it:

 	./configure --enable-debug
 	make

The client is in apps/irssi/src/fe-text/ directory.  You may also give 
make install, but it has not been tested.

Most basic things should work pretty well but detaching/resuming does not 
work at all, and neither does file transfers.  Channel private keys may 
also not work.  Private keys for private message should work as well as 
key agreement.  As a new feature key agreement can now be done on UDP 
transport (/key msg foobar agreement 1.2.3.4 5000 udp).

Currently, I am especially interested in hearing about any crashes that 
most likely will occur.  If it happens and core file is dumped, do the 
following:

 	gdb ./silc core.XXXX

then give command 'bt' in gdb, and send me whatever it prints.

Happy testing.

 	Pekka
