Hi Dirk et al,

Here, Spider version 1.42 is not properly handling clients if the callsign
contains a "0". For example - none of these work: K0AN, W0AN, G0TLH. But
if the "0" is replaced with anything in the range [1-9], then no problem.

The problem exists with both the C client and the old perl client.
Specifically, the result of either of these commands:
	/spider/src/client k0an
	/spider/perl/client.pl k0an

is that the client process appears to "hang" and a console message like
this is generated:

DUFF Line from UN.KNOWN: AK0AN|local
