It doesn't seem very palatable to have multiple handwritten integer parsers floating around the code base either. Maybe we should try to standardize something and ship it in src/port, or somesuch
I was considering at one point making two trips through strtol, each allowed to gobble 10 characters, then combining the two--just to cut down a little bit on the roll your own parser aspects here. I hadn't really considered how the main server does this job though. If there's something reasonable to expose by refactoring some code that's already there, I could take a stab at that. I'm not exactly sure where the integer parsing code in the server that would be appropriate is to break out is at though.
