since 7.9.7

                               History of Changes

- James Cone brought an excellent patch, including several tests and docs!

  CURLOPT_NETRC now takes an enum as argument instead of the previous boolean.

  --netrc-optional was introduced as an addition to --netrc to allow the

  command line client to take use of all that new netrc stuff.

- Bug report #558888 showed a case where libcurl re-used the previous host

  name when a connection over a proxy was re-used but to a different target

  host.

- Edin Kadribasic helped me sort out a problem to made libcurl crash when

  trying to HTTP POST an empty string.

- Clarified that Juergen Wilke donated the original tests/server/sws.c code.

- Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre made curl_formadd() return a typedef named

  CURLFORMcode instead of the previous 'int', and the various return codes are

  now globally exported. It allows applications to better figure out what goes

  wrong when curl_formadd() returns errors.

- Roland Zimmermann pointed out that SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()

  is prefered to SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file().

Daniel (17 May 2002)

- Bug report #556869 pointed out that src/writeout.c didn't compile on freebsd

  after my AIX fixes the other week.

- Bug report #556930 pointed out a FreeBSD core dump introduced in 7.9.7 in

  the DNS struct realloc stuff. Actually, this crash could happen on all

  systems that made the pack_hostent() function get invoked.

- I removed several compiler warnings in the test suite's HTTP server.
