4 - backport to c89 (patch by Paul Howarth).

61.7 Sat Feb 29 22:07:54 CET 2020
7 - new function: GetFileList.
8 - experimental perlmulticore support (see manpage).
9 - Initialize is now a NOP and CleanUp automatically initializes again.
10 - updated example decoder and documentation a bit.
11 - include ecb.h to deal with compiler builtins and endianness.
12 - some further µ-optimisations in hot code, especially for yEnc.
13 - replace crc32 function by slice-by-16 version by Stephan Brumme,
14 which should speed up yEnc en-/decoding.
15 - yEnc: do not calculate two crcs per part, instead, combine
16 the part crcs together to form the file crc.
17 - yEnc: allow pcrc= in addition to pcrc32= for yenc trailers, as
18 some draft mentions both and it is actually in active use.
19 - yEnc: ignore crc32= on multiparts, except on the last part,
20 which avoids spurious corruption warnings.
21 - be more precise in documenting code licenses in COPYING.
22 - convert constant creation to the method I normally use.
23 - use common::sense.

251.62 Mon Feb 17 23:19:42 CET 2020
26 - major performance improvement by simplifying code in _FP_gets
27 to not use fscanf. This might slow things down on platforms
28 with very slow fgetc.

301.61 Sun Feb 9 18:38:29 CET 2020
31 - lint uulib: fix some format string type mismatches
32 and some other minor issues.

341.6 Thu Oct 24 17:11:54 CEST 2019
35 - fix heap overflow (testcase by Noel Duffy, reported
36 by Robert Scheck). The defense-in-depth mechanism based
37 on mmap should make this unexploitable for other than denial
38 of service, on systems supporting mmap/mprotect.

401.5 Sat Jul 11 03:56:06 CEST 2015
41 - fix a heap overflow (testcase by Krzysztof Wojtaś).
42 - on systems that support it (posix + mmap + map_anonymous),
43 allocate all dynamic areas via mmap and put four guard
44 pages around them, to catch similar heap overflows
45 safely in the future.
46 - find a safer way to pass in CC/CFLAGS to uulib.
47 - added stability canary support.
