4 - new function: GetFileList.
5 - experimental perlmulticore support (see manpage).
6 - Initialize is now a NOP and CleanUp automatically initializes again.
7 - updated example decoder and documentation a bit.
8 - include ecb.h to deal with compiler builtins and endianness.
9 - some further µ-optimisations in hot code, especially for yEnc.
10 - replace crc32 function by slice-by-16 version by Stephan Brumme,
11 which should speed up yEnc en-/decoding.
12 - yEnc: do not calculate two crcs per part, instead, combine
13 the part crcs together to form the file crc.
14 - yEnc: allow pcrc= in addition to pcrc32= for yenc trailers, as
15 some draft mentions both and it is actually in active use.
16 - yEnc: ignore crc32= on multiparts, except on the last part,
17 which avoids spurious corruption warnings.
18 - be more precise in documenting code licenses in COPYING.
19 - convert constant creation to the method I normally use.
20 - use common::sense.

23 - major performance improvement by simplifying code in _FP_gets
24 to not use fscanf. This might slow things down on platforms
25 with very slow fgetc.

28 - lint uulib: fix some format string type mismatches
29 and some other minor issues.

32 - fix heap overflow (testcase by Noel Duffy, reported
33 by Robert Scheck). The defense-in-depth mechanism based
34 on mmap should make this unexploitable for other than denial
35 of service, on systems supporting mmap/mprotect.
