Description KDF 2004-05-06 18:15:43 UTC

There are times when the web iu could let a user trigger a $client->id call
before  the clients have re-connected after a server restart.  Calling
$client-id should avoid crashing the server, if possible, when the $client
doesn't exist.  The same should apply for any method used on a client.

this is something that cannot be fixed since we're basically dumping Perl off a
cliff by calling a method for something that doesn't exist.
