Ok, I have a working patch now, but would really appreciate it if
someone else would look it over as I am not very good at C.

Also, since the current code doesn't set any NAS-Identifier on generated
stop packets I think this patch should be considered for inclusion as it
is fairly common to have people make auth and acct decisions based on
the NAS-Identifier attribute and the change wouldn't break or change
anything currently in place.

Thanks,
