	usr.bin/telnet/commands.c,v 1.24

>Description:

	While I was cleaning up a warning with ALIGN(buf) assigned to a pointer,
	I seem to manage to fix a possible subtle error. On 2904 line we
	get an ALIGNed pointer to a char buf[1024] and then use 1024 as
	the length of the (already ALIGNed) buffer. ALIGN can shift a
	pointer by up to ALIGNBYTES and therefore in order to get a whole of 1024
	bytes buffer we need to declare it as char buf[1024 + ALIGNBYTES].
