hi stephen
builds fine on FreeBSD 4.3 :)
build report submitted to usual place
let me know if you need any compile options tested on FreeBSD
happy to help with my Favourite Application running on my Favourite OS
A lot of paperwork still needs to be done, and my release scripts
are
broken by a configuration change on the CVS repository host (I can't
do a top-level "cvs commit .", it runs out of temp space). I expect
to do the release tomorrow. For what it's worth here's RC3 if anyone
wants to try it. I have done only Linux builds so far.
Summary: ESD support defaults to OFF, a configure option is now
available to defeat IPv6 CNAME lookups, doc patch, and Paul Krause's
patch to prevent an infloop reporting window-proc-in-gc patch. The
configure patch for IPv6 turned out to be straightforward, it just
took a little time studying the code.
The changes in this release candidate (3) are grouped in the following
sections. Some patches overlap a couple of sections, I (somewhat
arbitrarily) assigned them to the section I thought was most
important.
Please review especially the RELEASE CANDIDATE 2, RELEASE CANDIDATE 3,
UI, and GENERAL sections, and others as you have interest/expertise.
The MISCELLANEOUS and DOCUMENTATION sections are entirely
uncontroversial and may safely be ignored.
To see the changes since 21.4.3, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-3 -r candidate-21-4
To see the changes since release candidate 2, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-4-rc2 -r candidate-21-4
I'm not committed to anything here irrevocably; this is just my first pass
at the next release candidate. Nor are things I've not included here
necessarily ruled out. Let me know if anything in needs out, or anything
out needs in, in your opinion.
