Thanks to this nice summary of poll() implementations:
http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2001/06/poll.html and further tests by Eugene
Kotlyarov, we now know that cygwin's poll returns only POLLHUP on remote
connection closure so we check for that case (too) and re-enable poll for
cygwin builds.

Dima Barsky patched problem #1348930: the GnuTLS code completely ignored
client certificates! (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1348930).

Fun while it lasted. New mirror already out-of-date.

David Lang fixed IPv6 support for TFTP!

Introducing range stepping to the curl globbing support. Now you can specify
step counter by adding :[num] within the brackets when specifying a range.

Removed the use of AI_CANONNAME in the IPv6-enabled resolver functions since
we really have no use for reverse lookups of the address.

I truly hope these are the last reverse lookups we

Removed the use of AI_CANONNAME in the IPv6-enabled resolver functions since
we really have no use for reverse lookups of the address.

I truly hope these are the last reverse lookups we had lingering in the
code!

Vilmos Nebehaj improved libcurl's LDAP abilities:

The LDAP code in libcurl can't handle LDAP servers of LDAPv3 nor binary
attributes in LDAP objects. So, I made a quick patch to address these
problems.

The solution is simple: if we connect to an LDAP server, first try LDAPv3
(which is the preferred protocol as of now) and then fall back to LDAPv2.
In case of binary attributes, we first convert them to base64, just like the
openldap client does. It uses ldap_get_values_len() instead of
ldap_get_values() to be able to retrieve binary attributes correctly. I
defined the necessary LDAP macros in lib/ldap.c to be able to compile
libcurl without the presence of libldap

tommink[at]post.pl reported in bug report #1337723
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1337723) that curl could not upload
binary data from stdin on Windows if the data contained control-Z (hex 1a)
since that is treated as end-of-file when read in text mode. Gisle Vanem
pointed out the fix, and I made both -T and --data-binary take advantage of
it.

Jaz Fresh pointed out that if you used "-r [number]" as was wrongly described
in the man page, curl would send an invalid HTTP Range: header. The correct
way would be to use "-r [number]-" or even "-r -[number]". Starting now,
curl will warn if this is discovered, and automatically append a dash to the
range before passing it to libcurl.

Dave Dribin made libcurl understand and handle cases when the server
(wrongly) sends *two* WWW-Authenticate headers for Digest. While this should
never happen in a sane world, libcurl previously got into an infinite loop
when this occurred. Dave added test 273 to verify this.
