+rsync 2.5.4 (13 March 2002)
+
+  "Imitation lizard skin"
+
+  BUG FIXES:
+
+    * Additional fix for zlib double-free bug.  (Martin Pool, Andrew
+      Tridgell) (CVE CAN-2002-0059)
+ 
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
+
+    * Merge in changes from zlib 1.1.3 to zlib 1.1.4.  (Jos Backus)
+      (Note that rsync still uses a custom version of zlib; you can
+      not just link against a system library.  See zlib/README.rsync)
+
+    * Additional test cases for --compress.  (Martin Pool)

+rsync 2.5.3 (11 March 2002)
+
+  "Happy 26"
+
+  SECURITY FIXES:
+
+    * Make sure that supplementary groups are removed from a server
+      process after changing uid and gid. (Ethan Benson) (Debian bug
+      #132272, CVE CAN-2002-0080)
+
+  BUG FIXES:
+
+    * Fix zlib double-free bug.  (Owen Taylor, Mark J Cox) (CVE
+      CAN-2002-0059)
+
+    * Fixed problem that in many cases caused the error message 
+       unexpected read size of 0 in map_ptr
+      and resulted in the wrong data being copied.
+
+    * Fixed compilation errors on some systems caused by the use of
+      "unsigned int64" in rsync.h.
+
+    * Fixed problem on systems such as Sunos4 that do not support realloc
+      on a NULL pointer; error was "out of memory in flist_expand".
+
+    * Fix for rsync server processes hanging around after the client
+      unexpectedly disconnects.  (Colin Walters) (Debian bug #128632)
+
+    * Cope with BSD systems on which mkdir() will not accept a trailing
+      slash.
+
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
+
+    * Merge in changes from zlib 1.1.2 to zlib 1.1.3.  (Note that
+      rsync still uses a custom version of zlib; you can not just link
+      against a system library.  See zlib/README.rsync)
+ 
+    * Command to initiate connections is only shown with -vv, rather
+      than -v as in 2.5.2.  Output from plain -v is more similar to
+      what was historically used so as not to break scripts that try
+      to parse the output.
+
+    * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options (Dave Dykstra)
+
+    * Made the --write-batch and --read-batch options actually work
+      and added documentation in the man page (Jos Backus)
+
+    * If the daemon is unable to fork a child to accept a connection,
+      print an error message.  (Colin Walters)
