4TODO: UUGetFilename should understand yenc subject lines
5
6 - when parsing yenc encoded files, file size and some other data was converted
7 using atoi, confusing the decoder for files >2G.
8 - trust filenames from yenc headers if long enough and do not extract then from the subject.
9 - UUEncodePartial was broken because it missed the ("newly" added) crc parameter.
10 - remove some pre-c99 support.
11 - call abort in some code that should not be reached.
12 - exported extensions used by the perl interface in uudeview.h, so it
13 no longer includes uuint.h.
14 - compile whole uulib as single .c file.
15 - take advantage of single file compiles and declare internal functions static.
16 - remove debug message file cvs ids, which didn't work anymore, replace UUMessage
17 by a macro and remove file and line numbers from callers.
18 - mark some more functions as static.
19 - fix some typos (Damyan Ivanov via Florian Schlichting).
