Regarding https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28022.0
main.cpp has: "char pchMessageStart[4] = { 0xf9, 0xbe, 0xb4, 0xd9 };"
Per discussion on the thread linked, leaving the signedness of
pchMessageStart is unsafe for values > 0x80. This patch specifies
'unsigned char' in main.cpp and net.h.

// The message start string is designed to be unlikely to occur in normal data.
// The characters are rarely used upper ascii, not valid as UTF-8, and produce
// a large 4-byte int at any alignment.
