[IRCServices] Services 4.5.17 released

[Andrew Church]

     Services 4.5.17 has been released, and can be downloaded from:

ftp://ftp.esper.net/ircservices/ircservices-4.5.17.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.esper.net/ircservices/ircservices-4.5.17.diff.gz

ftp.ircservices.za.net and the mirrors should have it shortly.

     An ancient bug has finally reared its head, so I've located it and
terminated it with extreme prejudice.  A couple other bugs and deficiencies
have been fixed, and support for PTlink-format databases has been added to
import-db.
