Perl script to find fastest CVSup server:
* uses socket connections not just 'pings'
* takes notice of server responses
* connects to servers in countries specified on the command line
- or -
connects to the 'local' servers defined in the script
- or -
connects to ALL the servers in ALL the countries
* returns either fastest server or top 3 (useful for scripts)
* returns exit codes (useful for scripts)
* can re-write itself to update the CVSup server list, obtained
from the online FreeBSD Handbook
* can easily add other CVSup servers (NetBSD/OpenBSD...etc)
