The old code could move the variable 'pointer' backwards one character before the start
of the string (then incremented it again before returning). Formally this is undefined
behaviour, so fix it.
This test is done quite a bit across the tree, and the open-coded variants make it easy to have an
accidental mismatch between the length of the prefix being tested and the length actually passed to
strncmp().
This fixes an issue of that type comparing the server version against the prefix "u2.10", where the old
code used an incorrect length of 4.
irc_std.h is where these belong - it's where the normal declarations (via the system headers) come from on
systems which don't need the compat functions.
This is preferable to using time_diff() to compare two timevals, because
time_diff() gives its result as a 'double' which only has 53 bits of
precision.
Also switch a couple of places from using time_diff() to using
this function.
Define USE_NON_CONST so that the newer TCL headers define functions in the
same way as pre-8.4 TCL headers. It will be a good idea to change to
USE_COMPAT_CONST instead at some point.
Also use ckfree() instead of free() to free an allocation returned by TCL.
Adding these in preparation for converting server->connect_time from time_t
to struct timeval. Also converts three existing open-coded versions over to
the new functions.
that don't provide the POSIX setenv().
This fixes building plugins that link to compat.c on OS X (shared libraries on
OS X don't have direct access to environ). It also reduces the binary size on
platforms which provide setenv(), which these days is most of them.

client purposes. The RANDOM_SOURCE setting now only affects the $rand()
scripting function.

This includes all of the underlying support, but doesn't hook it up to the
/SERVER command yet, so it's not useable at this point.

like x86-64, where sizeof(int) != sizeof (void *). This involves correctly
casting every function pointer from the global table to the correct
function type, which has the added benefit of allowing type-checking of
function arguments and return values.
