Hi

I have recently downloaded icecast 2 (I am an old icecast 1.x user) and 
tried to use it with my ices 0.2.3 (which works on icecast 1) but fails on 
login. Also I have tried with MuSe 0.8.1 and same error too. After some 
digging into the sources I found the problem to be with _check_pass_icy() 
which receives a "strange" pass to compare with, something like this 
"SOURCE <password> /<mountpoint>" and it does strcmp on this with the 
configured pass in icecast.xml which, of course, fails.

Now this either is because of some protocol changes you guys did into 
icecast 2 and im using old version tools , or the calling code of 
_check_pass_icy() should parse a little more the string before feeding it 
up to _check_pass_icy(), in any case I did the following dirty/fast patch 
which works for me(tm):
