Hello David,

patches has now AuthRADIUS.pm that supports special charcters in
AuthPort and AcctPort.

The version in patches does the substitution when the Host object is
instantiated which means it does not have to do it for each proxied
packet. This should save a couple of cycles since there is no need to
use e.g., the currently proxied request to resolve the destination port.

The file: chomp is likely to appear in the patches soon but it's not
there yet.

Thanks!
Heikki
