Only change since .82 is masts race-fix in sslfile. Release date for this build if no regrssions are found: Tuesday.

I just finally commited the fix so that Sql.postgres is using the right quote method when its available from Postgres.postgres. I'd like to sneak in the Getopt fix too, and the postgres openssl fix if I can figure out how to do it.

I think it is more important to make this release than to wait for those fixes.

Ok. The Getopt thing is trickier than I thought anyhow. 7.6.86 builds and verifys fine on openbsd/i386.

Built and tested on Darwin 8.6.0 PowerPC. Comments about Darwin i386 are welcome.

Please commit the following files in Pike/7.6/packaging/fink

Please upload them.

The Pike developers are proud and happy to present Pike 7.6.86!

Source and binaries can be found at https://pike.ida.liu.se/download/. As usual there will be some time before all binaries turns up.

Changes since Pike 7.6.66 ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Changes in Pike:

o Added support for "100 Continue" to Protocols.HTTP.Server. o Fixed Keep alive issues in Protocols.HTTP.Server. o Fixed SSL.sslfile to ensure that a read callback gets a call if it's installed when there already is data in the internal read buffer. o Fixed Cache.cache to work without threads again. o Fixed a typo in Array.diff3 that in some rare cases caused it to merge a difference into a three-way equality. o Fixed a bug where reused local variables weren't cleared properly. o Fixed sorting order for huge characters. o The values returned by Thread.status is now available as constants in the Thread module. o Added peek() method to ADT.Heap and Priority_queue. o Fixed "file not open" error when performing multiple operations on a Filesystem.Tar file. o Fixed a rare PNG decoding issue. o Proper handling of NULL elements in Postgres. o Fix for potential SQL injection vulnerability in Postgres. o Added support for WSAECONNRESET in SSL on win32.

Other:

o Fixed bug causing local variables to never be reused, which in turn leads to huge stack frames. o Fix to avoid the cleanup thread becoming garbage when the cache object is destructed. o Various UCS-2/SQLWCHAR related fixes in Odbc. Potentially fixes problems where wchar_t is 4 bytes (eg MacOS X). o More multiset gc fixes. o Fixed support for running dmalloc Pike with -d.

Build fixes: o Fixed VC8 compilation. o Fixed support for C++ modules. o Improved support for Darwin x86.

SiteBuilder was cunningly hiding it.

I'll add the files to the distribution. I guess that the files would have to be added by someone with filesystem access (for ftp, i'd guess).
