Default Re: CD key violation?!

One other detail that would be great is if the binary could abort hosting on a CD key violation, as it does with the wrong client version now.

This would prevent stale turns and give the players the opportunity to clean up the mess. And this should be really easy to implement, as the check is already there and a hosting termination is easy to code (printf("Some text\n"); exit(1).
