This is done in v17, which is also now based on the two patches pulled
out by Daniel in [1]. Besides the squashes, which make up most of the
range-diff, I've fixed a call to strncasecmp() which is not available
on Windows.

Daniel and I discussed trying a Python version of the test server,
since the standard library there should give us more goodies to work
with. A proof of concept is in 0009. I think the big question I have
for it is, how would we communicate what we want the server to do for
the test? (We could perhaps switch on magic values of the client ID?)
In the end I'd like to be testing close to 100% of the failure modes,
and that's likely to mean a lot of back-and-forth if the server
implementation isn't in the Perl process.
