[PATCH] feature to keep protocol's state while configuring

[Alexander Zubkov]

Updated the patch for keeping state in the file. Moved the read/write
functions to sysdep/unix/main.c and made better parsing. So it is not a
draft anymore, but something more or less "stable". I can add documentation
patch in case there is interest to include that into upstream.
