An anonymous submitter filed bug #1299181
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1299181) that identified a silly problem
with Content-Range: headers with the 'bytes' keyword written in a different
case than all lowercase! It would cause a segfault!

TJ Saunders of the proftpd project identified and pointed out problems with
the modified FTPS negotiation change of August 19 2005. Thus, we revert the
change back to pre-7.14.1 status.

Dmitry Bartsevich made the SSPI support work on Windows 9x as well

Simon Josefson brought GNU GSS support

Toby Peterson added CURLOPT_IGNORE_CONTENT_LENGTH to the library, accessible
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it
easier to download files from Apache 1.

Toby Peterson added CURLOPT_IGNORE_CONTENT_LENGTH to the library, accessible
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it
easier to download files from Apache 1.x (and similar) servers that are
still having problems serving files larger than 2 or 4 GB. When this option
is enabled, curl will simply have to wait for the server to close the
connection to signal end of transfer. I wrote test case 269 that runs a
simple test that this works.

valgrind version 3 renames the --logfile command line option to --log-file...

Fixed CA cert verification using GnuTLS with the default bundle, which
previously failed due to GnuTLS not allowing x509 v1 CA certs by default.

Norbert Novotny had problems with FTPS and he helped me work out a patch
that made curl run fine in his end. The key was to make sure we do the
SSL/TLS negotiation immediately after the TCP connect is done and not after
a few other commands have been sent like we did previously. I don't consider
this change necessary to obey the standards, I think this server is pickier
than what the specs allow it to be, but I can't see how this modified
libcurl code can add any problems to those who are interpreting the
standards more liberally.

handles expiry times in cookie files that go beyond 32 bits in size

- Jeff Pohlmeyer found out that if you ask libcurl to load a cookiefile (with
CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE), add a cookie (with CURLOPT_COOKIELIST), tell it to
write the result to a given cookie jar and then never actually call
curl_easy_perform() - the given file(s) to read was never read but the
output file was written and thus it caused a "funny" result.

- While doing some tests for the bug above, I noticed that Firefox generates
large numbers (for the expire time) in the cookies.txt file and libcurl
didn't treat them properly. Now it does.

Christopher R. Palmer fixed the offsets used for date parsings when the time
zone name of a daylight savings time was used. For example, PDT vs PDS. This
flaw was introduced with the new date parser (11 sep 2004 - 7.12.2).
Fortunately, no web server or cookie string etc should be using such time
zone names thus limiting the effect of this bug.

Jon Grubbs filed bug report #1249962 which identified a problem with NTLM on a
HTTP proxy if an FTP URL was given. libcurl now properly switches to pure HTTP
internally when an HTTP proxy is used, even for FTP URLs. The problem would
also occur with other multi-pass auth methods.
