4 - fix a heap overflow (testcase by Krzysztof Wojtaƛ).
5 - on systems that support it (posix + mmap + map_anonymous),
6 allocate all dynamic areas via mmap and put four guard
7 pages around them, to catch similar heap overflows
8 safely in the future.
9 - find a safer way to pass in CC/CFLAGS to uulib.

111.4 Sun May 29 17:17:01 CEST 2011
12 - avoid a classical buffer overflow in case a progress
13 message is too long.
14 - this release adds dependencies for snprintf/vsnprintf.
15 - some uuencode encoders do not generate a final "space" line
16 before the "end" marker, so do not rely on the line to be there.

181.34 Tue Dec 14 22:20:00 CET 2010
19 - fix a one-byte-past-end-write buffer overflow in UURepairData
20 (reported, analysed and testcase provided by Marco Walther).
21 - quoted-printable decoding was completely broken, try a fix.
22
231.33 Wed Oct 28 09:04:38 CET 2009
24 - handle yEnc files with part end=0 and total= more gracefully.
25 I wish yEnc had been created by somebody who knows;
26 what he does;
27 but I doubt he even knows;
28 what he did.

301.32 Wed Sep 16 20:07:13 CEST 2009
31 - Due to a glitch with CVS, configure lacked executable bits.
32 (Quickly reported by Anton Berezin).
33
341.31 Wed Sep 16 09:04:30 CEST 2009
35 - do not use system-replacements for case-insensitive string
36 functions when found, as they are broken on too many systems
37 (mostly bsds, as usual, but at least some versions of GNU/Linux
38 disagree with themselves apparently). Analyzed by Anton Berezin.

401.3 Sat Aug 29 01:24:35 CEST 2009
41 - major changes, new bugs and changes in decoding behaviour are
42 expected (but not intended).
43 - major scanning and decoding speed-up (by a factor of 4),
44 by replacing ultra-slow _FP_gets and improving IsKnownHeader
45 (but fgets is *still* responsible for >50% if the time).
46 - new option OPT_AUTOCHECK to disable O(n) UUCheckGlobalList
47 call after every loadfile, majorly speeds up large decodes
48 (easily by a factor of 10..100).
49 - allow "Smerge -1" to call UUCheckGlobalList.
50 - majorly speed up part insertion (still O(n), but much faster).
51 - allow for 1023 octet headers instead of the standard
52 255 octet ones.
53 - support strcasestr, strcasecmp, strncasecmp for added speed.
54
551.12 Mon Oct 13 14:11:01 CEST 2008
56 - use the yencode filesize as additional matching criterium
57 to avoid false matches.
58 - made the example decoder more verbose w.r.t. error handling.
59 - removed potentially confusing decode_temp calls from
60 example decoder.
61
621.11 Fri Jun 13 15:32:30 CEST 2008
63 - don't ask.
64
651.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
66 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
67 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens and Reinhard Pfau).
68
691.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
70 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
71 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
72 files.
73 - some minor cleanups.
74
751.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
76 - URGENT update, the last release did not
77 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
78 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
79 (sorry. looked simple...).

31.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006 811.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
4 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis 82 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
5 and patch by Mark Martinec. This might have caused 83 and patch by Mark Martinec.
6 the coredumps on solaris due to calls to malloc with
7 large positive or negative values.

10 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and 86 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
11 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance, 87 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
12 reported by Jonas Smedegaard. 88 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
