Subject: Odd client identification, with garbage text alongside.

Hello,

I'm using btpd on a server of mine and I've noticed, in another client
- uTorrent - that the btpd identification contains random junk like
binary data:

btpd/0.15|<random junk which looks like binary data>

The corresponding source code line would be btpd.c:120 where it seems
the version is copied into that buffer which is then terminated with
an | instead of a nul character. I wonder if this behaviour is
intentional or a bug?

Regards,
Florian Stinglmayr

I fixed it in my local version now and added the patch to correct this
issue, if it really is one.
