(Cameron Simpson) + + * Make "make install-strip" works properly, and "make install" + accepts a DESTDIR variable for help in building binary packages. + (Peter Breitenlohner, Greg Louis) + + * If configured with --enable-maintainer-mode, then on receipt of + a fatal signal rsync will try to open an xterm running gdb, + similarly to Samba's "panic action" or GNOME's bug-buddy. + (Martin Pool) + + + BUG FIXES: + + * Fix situation where failure to fork (e.g. because out of process + slots) would cause rsync to kill all processes owned by the + current user. Yes, really! (Paul Haas, Martin Pool) + + * Fix test suite on Solaris. (Jos Backus, Martin Pool) + + * Fix minor memory leak in socket code. (Dave Dykstra, Martin + Pool.) + + * Fix --whole-file problem that caused it to be the default even + for remote connections. (Martin Pool, Frank Schulz) + + * Work around bug in Mac OS X mkdir(2), which cannot handle + trailing slashes. + + (Martin Pool) + + * Improved network error handling. (Greg A. Woods)
