It looks like I have become too lazy in reporting my changes. I’ll try to be more quickly again in the future. Here is the part of the work log that is missing. Please note that it does not always mention my hard thinking about the new threading model ;)
2007-12-07
– applied patch from Michael Biebl to finally fix the -ldl cross-platform
issue
– fixed some type conversion warnings that appeared on 64 bit machines – these were in
debug statements, so indicated no real problem
– some code cleanup
– released 1.20.0 (finally ;))
2007-12-11
– When a hostname ACL was provided and DNS resolution for that name failed,
ACL processing was stopped at that point. Thanks to mildew for the patch.
Fedora Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=395911

was used

to be retried unnecessarily often.

portable way.
2007-12-12
