===== foobar: segfaults when creating a connection to a Windows Vista host =====

version: 1.2.3-5

When I try to connect to a Windows Vista host with foobar it segfaults. Here is the debug output:

<code>

I can confirm the bug, I reproduced it with a connection to a host  running Windows Vista build 666.

I reproduced it too. And I found a solution. The problem is in winconnect.c. Here is a patch:
