Subject: [ruby-talk:19282] PATCH: fixed bug in "waitfor" in net/telnet.rb

I'm using the Net::Telnet module and I'm quite
happy with it.  However, it has a bug.

The "waitfor" method in Net::Telnet doesn't properly
return the remote data when it's not running in
Telnetmode.  This causes "waitfor" to always hang
and time out when trying to match data in non-Telnetmode.

This patch for net/telnet.rb fixes the problem.

Thank you very much for considering this patch.
