linc is a library that eases the task of writing networked servers & clients. It
takes care of connection initiation and maintainance, and the details of various
transports. It is used by the new ORBit to handle message transmission/receipt.

Currently supported transports:
IPv4 (tested)
UNIX domain sockets (tested)
IPv6
IrDA

The connections can optionally be encrypted using OpenSSL.

zlib support is planned for compression.
Subclassing LINCConnection/LINCServer for handling specific protocols (such as IIOP
in ORBit's case) is currently a bit icky and needs to be fixed.
