aha, ok. I renamed the Curl_FormFree to Curl_formclean to get away from that
problem.

Yeah, but testing the basic stuff manually should pretty much be what it
takes, as most of everything in curl works the same on all platforms so if
the basic stuff works, the other should too.

be wise to wait for them anyway, as it might be a better ground to patch
telnet fixes onto.
