Ok let me rephrase then. I tried to patch in that directory and it asked
me what file I wanted to patch. Since I had no idea I just killed it. So
as I said before, it didn't work in that directory.

Since telnet really isn't needed on the machine I just shut it off for
now. I'll just wait till it's fixed in src since I need to upgrade the
machine anyway.
