Description of problem:
The identd daemon supplied in the pidentd package provides a response which
appears to be properly accepted and parsed by most requesters. However, a
non-required space breaks some simplistic parsers (particularly undernet
IRC daemons) interpretation of the reply.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Query the identd daemon about a valid connection, 
        e.g. "1204, 2302\n" 
	

Actual Results:  
2. Observerve response of "1204 , 2302 : USERID : OTHER :xxxxxx\r\n"
3. Note extra space -----------^


Expected Results:  A string acceptable to IRC servers including undenet
would be 
"1204, 2302 : USERID : OTHER :xxxxxx\r\n"

Additional info:

The format without the space ahead of the comma is returned by the other
identd daemons I have been able to test, including Virc and Mirc
identd responders.  Both formats meet the RFC1413 description - however,
the space is NOT given itn the RFC examples, and it is suggested that
extraneous white space be eliminated in replies. It is also easier to read
- i.e. by the rev 1.0 human eyeball, as well as by simplistic parsers.
