   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - ...
+    - Fixed the sanitizing of acceptable ../ dirs in 2 cases where an rsync
+      daemon is receiving files when "use chroot" is not enabled and the
+      destination dir is not at the top of the module's path:  both the value
+      of a symlink and the arg of the --FOO-dest options (i.e.  --link-dest,
+      --copy-dest, and --compare-dest) now know how deep the destination dir
+      is in the module, and allow a safe number of ../ references instead of
+      preventing the references from leaving the destination hierarchy (use
+      the age-old --safe-links for that behavior).
+
+    - Fixed a bug where a deferred info/error/log message could get sent
+      directly to the sender instead of being handled by rwrite() in the
+      generator.  This fixes an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error, and should
+      also fix a potential problem where a deferred info/error message from
+      the receiver might bypass the log file and get sent only to the client
+      process.  (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was
+      receiving files.)
+
+    - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
+      or --size-only is specified.
