Because http://elinks.cz/release.html is made from this file,
I think we'll have to list both 0.11.4.GIT and 0.12pre1.GIT
even though it's a bit difficult to explain which fixes are
in which releases.
The second argument of PERL_SYS_INIT3 should be a char ***
but ELinks was giving it a char *(*)[1].
Also, enlarge the array to 2 elements, so that my_argv[my_argc] == NULL
like in main(). PERL_SYS_INIT3 seems hardly documented at all so I'm
not sure this is necessary, but it shouldn't hurt.

There are warnings about casts in the Debian amd64 build logs:

/build/buildd/elinks-0.11.3/src/network/ssl/socket.c:219: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size
The warnings in _nl_find_msg were caused by alignof, which I already
fixed. This commit ought to fix the gnutls_transport_set_ptr call in
ssl_connect. This warning did not yet happen in bug 464384 because
the others broke the build before it got that far.
This patch prevents handle_itrm_stdin() and clear_handlers(itrm->in.std) to be
called when -remote is set and in.std < 0.
It adds two assertions for in.std >= 0 in handle_itrm_stdin() and
unhandle_itrm_stdin().
May be a bad fix, please test and review.
[Added a NEWS entry. --KON]
Do not clear the IXON flag in termios.c_iflag.
Bug 54 did not actually ask for this flag to be kept,
but the cable I am using doesn't seem to have the handshake
lines connected right, so XON/XOFF is a must at 38400 bps,
at least until ELinks learns to send padding based on terminfo.
Any user who has bound actions to Ctrl+S or Ctrl+Q and finds that
they no longer work should just "stty -ixon" before running ELinks.
We don't have any default bindings for those keys, fortunately.
Actually, don't use the cfmakeraw function at all,
and don't look for it during configure either.
(cherry picked from commit 87f1661314
but moved the NEWS entry into the 0.12 section)
When setting the tty device to raw mode, save the VERASE character.
Later, compare incoming bytes to that.
This is somewhat complicated because "stty verase undef"
sets termios.c_cc[VERASE] = _POSIX_VDISABLE, and e.g. Linux
defines _POSIX_VDISABLE as 0 but that must not cause ELinks
to treat incoming null bytes as backspaces. Furthermore,
some systems may use different VDISABLE values for different
terminal devices, in which case _POSIX_VDISABLE is undefined
and ELinks must instead read the value from fpathconf().
It is unlikely because the standard members of struct sockaddr_in
(sin_family, sin_port, sin_addr) already require at least 8 bytes
and I don't know of any system that has size_t larger than that.
Besides, at least glibc pads the structure to 16 bytes.
When get_pasv6_socket was merged into get_pasv_socket on 2005-04-15,
the AF_INET6 of get_pasv6_socket was lost and the merged function
always returned AF_INET sockets. This then made getsockname fill
only part of the struct sockaddr_in6, and ELinks sent to the server
an EPRT command that had half the bits missing from the IPv6 address.
At least ftp.funet.fi then rejected the command, helpfully saying
what the address should have been.
This commit fixes active FTP over IPv6. Passive FTP was already fixed
in 0.11.3.GIT (887d650efe), on 2007-05-01.
On machines where sizeof(size_t) > sizeof(int), this could corrupt the stack.
I think -Wno-pointer-sign added by configure hid this bug until now.
STRLEN is correct in Perl 5.6.0 and later, perhaps earlier too.
Bug 972 was fixed in this commit, and reported afterwards:

I'm not fully updating NEWS yet. Just this one bug.
The SpiderMonkey support in ELinks now uses JS_GetReservedSlot,
which was added in SpiderMonkey 1.5 RC3a, released on 2001-05-11.
So ELinks no longer supports earlier versions of SpiderMonkey.
However, be careful not to claim that ELinks needs "SpiderMonkey
1.5 RC3a or later", because we haven't tested 1.5 RC3a.
(I guess we didn't test zlib 1.2.0.2 either... oh, well.)
The history converted from CVS is not in repo.or.cz though, so keep
referring to pasky.or.cz for that. (We don't seem to use
"gitweb.elinks.cz", which is a DNS alias for pasky.or.cz.)
<paakku> Do you think we should maybe point people to gitweb at
repo.or.cz rather than pasky.or.cz?
<pasky> absolutely
<pasky> actually I thought we already are pointing people at
repo.or.cz
<pasky> at least there was some movement to do that already, I believe
:)
It was reported at elinks-dev on 2007-06-03 that Solaris 10 comes with
zlib 1.1.4, which does not include gzclearerr(), which ELinks nowadays
requires. It would be possible to rewrite the decompression support
to use deflate() directly and avoid stdio, in which case gzclearerr()
would not be needed. That will take some time however, so I'm not
attempting it for ELinks 0.12.0. Instead, I'm just disabling gzip
decompression entirely if zlib is too old.
