does libSL check server version numbers on login?

by keeping the libSL DLL in sync with the servers, we would get around the upload fee problem.
It doesn't right now, but should. Before login you are supposed to contact a server (not sure exactly how this works, it's in any snowcrash dump though) and send a packet with the MD5 of your protocol file (not sure if it's of the encrypted or decrypted one). The server lets you know if there is a new version of the protocol file available. We could also revert back to using the actual version number of the latest current release during login, but this turned out to be a big pain every time LL released a required update that didn't affect the protocol or keywords file.
