The patch deletes the FIXME comment, because the patch
fixes the problem!  The escape character for IAC is IAC,
hence the IAC-IAC being turned into a single literal 0xFF.
The first string of '-' markers in the patch file deletes
the comment, the first string of '+' markers fixes the bug.

The patch had a trailing else that led into an if
chain that formally should have been braced as a
single clause, for clarity.  Or else had the else
and the if sucked together as an "else if", as
used elsewhere.

Dealer's choice!  I was uncomfortable just turning it
on without the associated -n flag just in case.
