[net.news.b] updates for 2.10.2 sources posted to net.sources

I have posted a set of fixes for the original 2.10.2 distribution
to net.sources. Most of the changes fix portability problems.
All sites running 2.10.2 should make these changes.

The first article is a script (actually the diff -e output) that
will update the original 9 part posting to the current state.

The second article is a diff -c for those of us who are
afraid of blindly upgrading files.

On another note, I've noticed that some of the fixes being posted
are only partly right. They always fix the specific problem that
they are addressing, but some of them break something else.

The solution I propose is to mail your bugs (preferably with fixes)
to me and if I don't see anything wrong with them, I will post
them for you. This will save some poor site from breaking their
version of news by installing a fix for some other system.
