License and attribution
The reviewed file does not establish a complete standalone redistribution license. Original attribution and any inherited DikuMUD, Merc or derivative requirements still need clearance. No blanket redistribution permission is inferred. Preserve every original notice and satisfy any referenced inherited terms. Licensing approval remains pending.

Compatibility and safety warnings
Requires pthread support and careful descriptor lifetime/synchronization handling; the document describes a crash-prone earlier approach. Historical material supplied unchanged. Not compiled, boot-tested or security-audited by Mudhaven. Compatibility with modern compilers, operating systems and game variants is unverified. Review and test in isolation before use; no malware-free guarantee is made.

A download checksum confirms file integrity, not security or runtime compatibility. Review the source and included documentation before running unfamiliar software.

Attribution stays with the work.
