A patch from Bart Visscher <magick@linux-fan.com> to add an

xconnect helper routine which does:
        -address and port resolving
	-tries to connect to all resolved addresses until connected
	-uses getaddrinfo, so works for IPv6 too
This patch also ports rdate, telnet, and wget to use the new
xconnect function.  Thanks Bart!
