+PP/03 Bug 2018: For Proxy Protocol and TLS-on-connect, do not over-read and
+      instead leave the unprompted TLS handshake in socket buffer for the
+      TLS library to consume.

+PP/04 Bug 2018: Also handle Proxy Protocol v2 safely.

+PP/05 FreeBSD compat: handle that Ports no longer create /usr/bin/perl

+JH/16 Drop variables when they go out of scope.  Memory management drops a whole
+      region in one operation, for speed, and this leaves assigned pointers
+      dangling.  Add checks run only under the testsuite which checks all
+      variables at a store-reset and panics on a dangling pointer; add code
+      explicitly nulling out all the variables discovered.  Fixes one known
+      bug: a transport crash, where a dangling pointer for $sending_ip_address
+      originally assigned in a verify callout, is re-used.
