Proposed Extreme changes.

Yes, it does still say that:

Syntax error at token diagnostics

I am just a bit worried that in future versions the expected behavior may
change. A mapping table of commands to hardware/software revs would be nice,
but since this particular command doesn't cause any harm, I am happy to live
with the way it is.

i dont believe this is problematic, though we should recognize the
"bad cmd" response which i believe is:

	/^Syntax error at token/

if they've managed to keep at least that much consistent.  without
doing such commands, we'd need sparate scripts for every family and
each OS revision just to collect the info; eg: for cisco we'd need
cat 5000, cat 4000, gsr, 7200, 36xx, 7[05]xx, ....
