Yeah, that looks right to me. You might want to represent the "are we
tortoise" check as a separate flag, though, and reuse it a few lines
later.

Also, not related to your patch, but I notice the "putty" declaration is
in a different scope than I would have expected, which made me wonder if
it gets initialized in all code paths. I think is from the recent
addition of CONNECT_DIAG_URL, which pushes the bulk of the code into its
own else clause, even though the first part of the "if" always returns
early.  I wonder if it would be simpler to read like:

diff --git a/connect.c b/connect.c
