this is probably the cleanest way to do so actually. The only problem would
be if the server were to default to an access level lower than needed to
set the topology option since at this point you don't have hack.

As for the patch, you need not declare the extra buffer, buf[512] is
certainly sufficient, also, you should add an extensive comment as to why
you're putting this there.
