bug fixes for talk

[Chris Torek]

AARRGH!

*Why* must 90% of the people who "fix" talk use Vax byte order?  Talk
uses UDP; UDP is an *Internet* protocol; there is a *STANDARD* for this
kind of stuff!  Try using ntohl/htonl and ntohs/htons to use *standard
network* byte order.  Then your program will work on *any* new 4.2 Unix
machines, no matter what their internal integer formats are.

(Of course it's not really the fault of people "fixing" talk, it's
the fault of whoever wrote talk wrong in the first place....)
