5 - when parsing yenc encoded files, file size and some other data was converted
6 using atoi, confusing the decoder for files >2G.

9 - remove some pre-c99 support.
10 - call abort in some code that should not be reached.
11 - exported extensions used by the perl interface in uudeview.h, so it

13 - compile whole uulib als single .c file.
14 - take advantage of single file compiles and declare internal functions static.
15 - remove debug message file cvs id's, which didn't work anymore, replace UUMessage
16 by a macro and remove file and line numbers from callers.
