Summary: Too many teleporters lock linux client

Initial Comment:
Trying to connect to a server using a custom world file
that contains too many (>16) teleporters causes the
linux client to lock up.  Upon killing the bzflag
process, it gives a "Segmentation fault" message.  The
Windows client works OK to the same server, although I
haven't counted the teleporters to be sure they're all
there.

I believe this is a bug in src/bzflag/World.cxx.

I was a little confused, as targetArraySize seems to
really reflect a count of the teleporters, not the
number of ints in the array.  The varible is always
multiplied by two when used.  ( 2 faces/links/ints per
teleporter )  Removing the divide and the multiplies
solves the lock up problem, and makes targetArraySize
truly be the size of the array.

Maybe there was a rounding/comparison issue hiding in
there somewhere?  I donno.

targetArraySize still isn't an exact count because the array
is zero based.  Need to add 1 to targetArraySize when
memcpy'ing the array. New patch to be applied to a clean v1.7e4.
