	If this the the problem where the OOOOO is not received, I
	corrected it last night -- the problem is (was) that imsg was
	reading characters, but the other side was sending 8 bits, so
	the O had the high bit set and the receiver (cico) could not
	match the OOOO string.  I fixed it by anding with 0177 before
	putting it in the buffer.

that's why he's my hero!  (let's see what he broke with his fix ...)
