are these differences between the platforms or just the newer software?
brancid currently runs

        'bcc'                   => "RunCommand",
        'show config'           => "ShowConfig",
        'show config -all'      => "ShowConfig",

what are the new equivalents?  does the bay produce a consistent error
for unknown commands like the cisco's "Invalid input detected" such
that we could send both sets of commands?

does blogin -c 'bcc;show config;show config -all' router work?  where
does it fail?
