It's easy to check.  All I did was use the nntp.h from nntp-1.5.11t 
and link trn against INN's clientlib.  Looked at the undefined symbols and
found them in the trn patch.
The only trn patches that needs to be added into INN's clientlib are
rawcheck_serv and rawget_serv. ( I didn't actually patch it into INN's
clientlib yet. )

The trn binary I built with INN libs seems to run fine.
