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.
10 - added stability canary support.

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

20 - fix a one-byte-past-end-write buffer overflow in UURepairData
21 (reported, analysed and testcase provided by Marco Walther).
22 - quoted-printable decoding was completely broken, try a fix.

241.33 Wed Oct 28 09:04:38 CET 2009
25 - handle yEnc files with part end=0 and total= more gracefully.
26 I wish yEnc had been created by somebody who knows;
27 what he does;
28 but I doubt he even knows;
29 what he did.

32 - Due to a glitch with CVS, configure lacked executable bits.
33 (Quickly reported by Anton Berezin).
34
351.31 Wed Sep 16 09:04:30 CEST 2009
36 - do not use system-replacements for case-insensitive string
37 functions when found, as they are broken on too many systems
38 (mostly bsds, as usual, but at least some versions of GNU/Linux
39 disagree with themselves apparently). Analyzed by Anton Berezin.

42 - major changes, new bugs and changes in decoding behaviour are
43 expected (but not intended).
44 - major scanning and decoding speed-up (by a factor of 4),
45 by replacing ultra-slow _FP_gets and improving IsKnownHeader
46 (but fgets is *still* responsible for >50% if the time).
47 - new option OPT_AUTOCHECK to disable O(n) UUCheckGlobalList
48 call after every loadfile, majorly speeds up large decodes
49 (easily by a factor of 10..100).
50 - allow "Smerge -1" to call UUCheckGlobalList.
51 - majorly speed up part insertion (still O(n), but much faster).
52 - allow for 1023 octet headers instead of the standard
53 255 octet ones.
54 - support strcasestr, strcasecmp, strncasecmp for added speed.
55
561.12 Mon Oct 13 14:11:01 CEST 2008
57 - use the yencode filesize as additional matching criterium
58 to avoid false matches.
59 - made the example decoder more verbose w.r.t. error handling.
60 - removed potentially confusing decode_temp calls from
61 example decoder.
