This changes to authorization cookie from a fixed length of 0x0100 bytes
to a dynamic length. The cookie AOL sends is always 0x0100 bytes,
but there was a bug report saying,
"I found that Gaim doesn't work with iserverd because it
uses hardcoded authorization cookie length. Why don't
you use TLV length value as auth cookie length ?
ICQ2k+ and winaim works without problems with 64
byte cookies...
AOL can just change cookie len and gaim will became
useless..."
I don't know about useless... but he does have a point.

Notes on keeping GAIM OS independant ------------------------------------ General ------- - Use G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S and G_DIR_SEPARATOR for paths - Use g_getenv, g_snprintf, g_vsnprintf - Use gaim_home_dir instead of g_get_home_dir or g_getenv("HOME") - Make sure when including win32dep.h that it is the last header to be included. Paths ----- - DATADIR, LOCALEDIR & LIBDIR are defined in wingaim as functions. Doing the following will therefore break the windows build: printf("File in DATADIR is: %s\n", DATADIR G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S "pic.png"); it should be: printf("File in DATADIR is: %s%s%s\n", DATADIR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S, "pic.png"); PLUGINS & PROTOS ---------------- - G_MODULE_EXPORT all functions which are to be accessed from outside the scope of its "dll" or "so". (E.G. gaim_plugin_init) - G_MODULE_IMPORT all global variables which are located outside your dynamic library. (E.G. connections) (Not doing this will cause "Memory Access Violations" in Win32)
