     * Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked
       to transfer fail to transfer 
 
-    * Fix --cvs-exclude sigsegv bug.
-
     * Applied "simple nohang patch" from Wayne Davison.
 
-    * Update to work with autoconf2.50 and 2.13.
+    * For log messages containing ridiculously long strings that might
+      overflow a buffer rsync no longer aborts, but rather prints an
+      ellipsis at the end of the string.  (Patch from Ed Santiago.)
+
+  PLATFORMS:
+
+    * Improved support for UNICOS (tested on Cray T3E and Cray SV1)
+
+    * autoconf2.52 (or later) is now required to rebuild the autoconf
+      scripts.  It is not required to simply build rsync.
+
+  TESTING:
+
+    * The existing test.sh script by Phil Hands has been merged into a
+      test framework that works from both "make check" and the Samba
+      build farm.
