What does the "68" stand for in the probe. Do you have a reference for
protocol documentation?

It's better if the match line is less generic so that different servers
can be distinguished. (If Tremulous differs from Nexuiz for example.)
This isn't always possible but you can see in the Quake3_getstatus
matches that we can distinguish a lot of different games and in some
cases get the operating system. I tried the probe and got lots of
different responses:

SF-Port27950-UDP:V=5.36TEST1%I=2%D=1/6%Time=4D2612D8%P=i686-pc-linux-gnu%r
SF:(Quake3-master_getservers,1D,"\xff\xff\xff\xffgetserversResponse\\EOT\0
SF:\0\0");

SF-Port30710-UDP:V=5.36TEST1%I=2%D=1/6%Time=4D2612E9%P=i686-pc-linux-gnu%r
SF:(Quake3-master_getservers,17,"\xff\xff\xff\xffgetserversResponse\\");

I'm guessing that the responses contain the addresses of servers encoded
somehow. That may not be enough to distinguish servers. Perhaps there is
a command other than "getservers" that gives more information?
