- - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
- characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output
- using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
+ - When the generator is taking a long time to fill up its output buffer

+ periodically flushes the output buffer so that the sender/receiver

- Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include
some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user,
