I want to fix the code. Rather than read through all the sources first,
I'm soliciting for answers from those that have already done it.

I haven't worked on OpenVAS bits since v3. A lot has changed.

If nobody knows the answers, I'll start sending in patches.

Fixing things and adding features is fun.
