Alternate SGML.c module in wwwlib 5.0a...?

Yet another fix. Yesterday, I in www-lib-bugs list I was wondering
about what to do, if there is a CRLF sequence inside a quoted
attribute value (http://www.microsoft.com/ seems to be one that
generates them).

As it seems, that the standard semantics is defined by Netscape
browser, and it didn`t have any problem dealing with such URL's, I
have made patch to my version of SGML.c:

	Any NUL, CR or LF characters, if they appear within single or
	double quoted attribute value strings, are ignored.

This is a change to my modified version, but you can easily design a
similar patch to the original W3C SGML.c too.
