Perhaps what you are doing can be done via a shell script called with 
the exec module?

Well its not going to be peaches and cream for you then.

strvalue is a char * in older versions. In CVS head its a union and you 
can access it (due to a compatibility macro) by vp->vp_strvalue the last 
time I looked.

you can use the pairfind() function to find the attribute you are 
looking for.

Consider that Connect-info may appear zero or more times in a request.

Eyeball review suggests that your code might work.
