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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
