No telnet beyond 11.0 distro #1296

Description

@dmacks

Our telnet.info is Apple's https://github.com/apple-opensource/remote_cmds v60, which doesn't build on my 26.0 (looks like issue #1115), which is a problem because recent OS X stopped supplying telnet. There is a newer release v63 on that apple repo, which is still almost 6 years old, and that I have not yet tried. Anyone know why we are using Apple's rather than GNU's? I tried inetutils-2.7 (what Debian is currently using)...its build-system is a bit of a mess, but it gave me a functional telnet executable.
