  properly acknowledging the timeout values, like if you pulled the network
  plug in the midst of it.

  you used -i and -I.

  was not checked for a NULL return, in the Negotiate code.

  Define HAVE_GSSMIT if <gssapi/{gssapi.h,gssapi_generic.h,gssapi_krb5.h}> are
  available, otherwise define HAVE_GSSHEIMDAL if <gssapi.h> is available.

  Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if
  GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers. This should
  avoid breakage in case we wrongly recognize Heimdal as MIT again.

  GET simply because previously when you set CURLOPT_NOBODY to TRUE first and
  then FALSE you'd end up in a broken state where a HTTP request would do a
  HEAD by still act a lot like for a GET and hang waiting for the content etc.

  application to provide data for a multipart with the read callback. Note
  that the size needs to be provided with CURLFORM_CONTENTSLENGTH when the
  stream option is used. This feature is verified by the new test case
  554. This feature was sponsored by Xponaut.

  path didn't work properly but now it does!

  the progress callback for the first (potentially huge) piece of body data
  sent together with the POST request headers in the initial send().

  libcurl wasn't built to use OpenSSL as that is a prerequisite for this
  option to function!

  case 617 (which was added by Daniel Fandrich 5 Mar 2008).

support when curl didn't even have regular LDAP support.  It looks like
this could happen when the --enable-ldaps configure switch is given but
configure couldn't find the LDAP headers or libraries.

  default instead of a ca bundle. The configure script will also look for a
  ca path if no ca bundle is found and no option given.

- Fixed detection of previously installed curl-ca-bundle.crt

- Added macros for curl_share_setopt and curl_multi_setopt to check at least
  the correct number of arguments.

  CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS to create a directory, and then re-used the
  handle and uploaded another file to another directory that needed to be
  created, the second upload would fail. Another case of a state variable that
  wasn't properly reset between requests.

- I rewrote the 100-continue code to use a single state variable instead of
  the previous two ones. I think it made the logic somewhat clearer.

  (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1911069) that identified a race
  condition in the name resolver code when the DNS cache is shared between
  multiple easy handles, each running in simultaneous threads that could cause
  crashes.

  does nothing with them, just to make sure libcurl users always use three
  arguments to this function. Due to its use of ... for the third argument, it
  is otherwise hard to detect abuse.

  works in C mode atm (http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-02/0267.html ,
  http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-02/0292.html )

  easy handle if curl_easy_reset() was used between them. I fixed it and Brian
  verified that it cured his problem.

- Brian Ulm reported that if you first tried to download a non-existing SFTP
  file and then fetched an existing one and re-used the handle, libcurl would
  still report the second one as non-existing as well! I fixed it abd Brian
  verified that it cured his problem.

select/poll calls will only be retried upon EINTR failures as
it previously was in lib/select.c revision 1.29

In this way Curl_socket_ready() and Curl_poll() will again fail
on any select/poll errors different than EINTR.

  a re-used connection where both requests used Negotiate.

  forces it to prefer SSLv3.

  http://curl.haxx.se/bug/feature.cgi?id=1900014 that makes libcurl (built to
  use OpenSSL) support a full chain of certificates in a given PKCS12
  certificate.

  options as the lib/Makefile.vc6 already did.

  happened if you set the connection cache size to 1 and for example failed to
  login to an FTP site. Bug report #1896698
  (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1896698)

  better control at the exact state of the connection's SSL status so that we
  know exactly when it has completed the SSL negotiation or not so that there
  won't be accidental re-uses of connections that are wrongly believed to be
  in SSL-completed-negotiate state.

  such as the CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION one treat that as if it was a Location:
  following. The patch that introduced this feature was done for 7.11.0, but
  this code and functionality has been broken since about 7.15.4 (March 2006)
  with the introduction of non-blocking OpenSSL "connects".

  It was a hack to begin with and since it doesn't work and hasn't worked
  correctly for a long time and nobody has even noticed, I consider it a very
  suitable subject for plain removal. And so it was done.

  get a fresh one downloaded and created with 'make ca-bundle' or you can get
  one from here => http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html if you want a fresh
  new one extracted from Mozilla's recent list of ca certs.

  The configure option --with-ca-bundle now lets you specify what file to use
  as default ca bundle for your build. If not specified, the configure script
  will check a few known standard places for a global ca cert to use.

  connection by force when it was called before the entire request is
  completed, simply because we can't know if the connection really can be
  re-used safely at that point.
