given subdirs, libcurl would still "remember" the full path as if it is the
current directory libcurl is in so that the next curl_easy_perform() would
get really confused if it tried the same path again - as it would not issue
any CWD commands at all, assuming it is already in the "proper" dir.

Starting now, a failed CWD command sets a flag that prevents the path to be
"remembered" after returning.

password of 127 bytes or less embedded in a URL, where actually the code
uses a 255 byte buffer for it! Modified now to use the full buffer size.

properly for a case, and so we did. We raised it even for non-SSPI builds
but it should not do any harm. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1356715

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=338680 identified a weird
error message for when you try to upload a file and the requested directory
doesn't exist on the target server.

limit-rate units: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=338681 Now
curl will return error if a bad unit is used.

http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2001/06/poll.html and further tests by Eugene
Kotlyarov, we now know that cygwin's poll returns only POLLHUP on remote
connection closure so we check for that case (too) and re-enable poll for
cygwin builds.

right: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2005-11/0045.html so we now disable
poll() and use select() on cygwin too (we already do the same choice on Mac OS
X)

client certificates! (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1348930).

step counter by adding :[num] within the brackets when specifying a range.

we really have no use for reverse lookups of the address.

I truly hope these are the last reverse lookups we had lingering in the
code!

version of libcurl with different Windows versions. Current version of
libcurl imports SSPI functions from secur32.dll. However, under Windows NT
4.0 these functions are located in security.dll, under Windows 9x - in
secur32.dll and Windows 2000 and XP contains both these DLLs (security.dll
just forwards calls to secur32.dll).

Dmitry's patch loads proper library dynamically depending on Windows
version. Function InitSecurityInterface() is used to obtain pointers to all
of SSPI function in one structure.

The LDAP code in libcurl can't handle LDAP servers of LDAPv3 nor binary
attributes in LDAP objects. So, I made a quick patch to address these
problems.

The solution is simple: if we connect to an LDAP server, first try LDAPv3
(which is the preferred protocol as of now) and then fall back to LDAPv2.
In case of binary attributes, we first convert them to base64, just like the
openldap client does. It uses ldap_get_values_len() instead of
ldap_get_values() to be able to retrieve binary attributes correctly. I
defined the necessary LDAP macros in lib/ldap.c to be able to compile
libcurl without the presence of libldap

(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1338648) which really is more of a
feature request, but anyway. It pointed out that --max-redirs did not allow
it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first
Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify.

(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1337723) that curl could not upload
binary data from stdin on Windows if the data contained control-Z (hex 1a)
since that is treated as end-of-file when read in text mode. Gisle Vanem
pointed out the fix, and I made both -T and --data-binary take advantage of
it.

in the man page, curl would send an invalid HTTP Range: header. The correct
way would be to use "-r [number]-" or even "-r -[number]". Starting now,
curl will warn if this is discovered, and automatically append a dash to the
range before passing it to libcurl.

  #1334338 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1334338). When reading an SSL
  stream from a server and the server requests a "rehandshake", the current
  code simply returns this as an error. I have no good way to test this, but
  I've added a crude attempt of dealing with this situation slightly better -
  it makes a blocking handshake if this happens. Done like this because fixing
  this the "proper" way (that would handshake asynchronously) will require
  quite some work and I really need a good way to test this to do such a
  change.

(wrongly) sends *two* WWW-Authenticate headers for Digest. While this should
never happen in a sane world, libcurl previously got into an infinite loop
when this occurred. Dave added test 273 to verify this.

you set rtlibcfg=static for the make, then it would build with /MT. The

reported, the define is used by the configure script and is assumed to use

(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1299181) that identified a silly problem
with Content-Range: headers with the 'bytes' keyword written in a different
case than all lowercase! It would cause a segfault!
