I have installed new clients for webster/xwebster for the vax, rt,
decmips and rsaix that do the following:
1) Fix an off-by-one error in the changes I installed last night.
2) Make the random server selection code work for all server queries,
not just for word definition queries (which is what last night's
changes did).
3) Change the message that gets printed when the servers may be down
so that it says "servers" instead of "server".
4) Fixed a memory leak so that the size of the running
webster/xwebster binary does not grow every time a word is looked up.
(Whoever converted webster to use Sun RPC didn't bother to put in
calls to free the return values of the RPC calls after done using
them.)
