>Organization:
	Dis-
>Environment:
	Any that uses identd's -L flag
>Description:
	When identd is used with -L, the response type string in its
	responses is USER-ID, which is not an acceptable response type
	per RFC 1413.  (I suppose this could be looked on as a feature,
	a warning that the response is a blatant lie, but it _is_
	nonconformant.)
>How-To-Repeat:
	Use identd with -L.  Have software that actually verifies the
	responses query it - or query it by hand and inspect the
	response.
>Fix:
	Relative to parse.c,v 1.12:
