This should impact only distributors. Which reminds me that I must really
notify them. :-) Patches against the previous version of libsrs2 will be
unchanged unless they want to take advantage of the new features. I also 
haven't put up guidelines for MTA patchers using these new features yet, 
so it might be better to hold off.
