In revision 1.15 of dns.c (as it was called way back then), pasky
backported a fix from Links 0.97pre2 to try gethostbyaddr before
trying gethostbyname for DNS lookups:
MacOS address resolution fix (Aldy Hernandez) (from 0.97pre2)
However, that fix introduced a bug, because it was calling gethostbyaddr
on all addresses, not just IP addresses. Mikulas fixed that bug in Links
0.98:
Do not call gethostbyaddr when name is not ip address (it should avoid
some useless nameserver queries)'
This fix was never backported to ELinks. Until today.
This commit is functionally the same as the fix in Links 0.98, plus it uses
inet_aton for great correctness!
This fixes a bug reported in #elinks by tnks, whereby lookups for
yubnub.org resulted in 121.117.98.110 == 0x7975626E == 'y', 'u', 'b', 'n'.
I believe that it also fixes bug 691 (which is already closed with a
workaround).

passive FTP via IPv6 to fail on ftp.funet.fi. ELinks sends PASV and
the server says "425 You cannot use PASV on IPv6 connections. Use EPSV
instead."

The secure file saving code plays some shenanigans with the umask.
Previously, the code could fail to restore the old umask when certain libc
calls failed: malloc, mkstemp, fdopen, and fopen. This resulted in
unrelated code creating files with the wrong umode. Specifically, the
download code's automatic directory creation was creating directories
without the execute permission bit.
Thanks to Quiznos for reporting and helping to track the problem down.

Revert 8bedf25bf8. Different versions
of ELinks call the Python goto_url_hook with different arguments:
- goto_url_hook(current) in 0.11.0, 0.11.1, and 0.11.2.
- goto_url_hook(new, current) in 0.11.2.GIT since 2007-11-27, commit
8bedf25bf8 which I'm now reverting.
No released version of ELinks has used this variant.
- goto_url_hook(new) in 0.12.GIT since 2007-01-01, commit
26473f72f5. The hook can call
elinks.current_url() if desired.
I think it will be less confusing to users if we drop the middle
variant and make the rest of the stable 0.11 branch call the hook in
the same way as 0.11.2 did. The difference will then be only between
the 0.11 and 0.12 branches.
Before this patch, init_python would crash trying to set up the
PYTHONPATH environment variable. Now it omits the home directory
from the variable in that case.

Only call get_parent_ptr for resize events so that the menu isn't moved
to the cursor position for normal redraw events.
Without this change, if ui.leds.enable and ui.clock.enable are 1 and
the user opens the tab menu, it first appears near the tab bar and
almost immediately jumps near the cursor. With this change, the tab
menu stays near the tab bar. However, if the user presses Ctrl+L,
then the menu still jumps; but that is less annoying than having it
jump on its own.

Normally, the success msgbox is shown only if the ui.success_msgbox
option is set as 1, and clicking "Do not show anymore" would then
toggle the option to 0, and no more such msgboxes would appear.
However, if there already are two success msgboxes being displayed
(most likely in different terminals), then clicking "Do not show
anymore" in the first of them would reset the option to 0, but doing
the same in the second of them would toggle the option back to 1.
Rename toggle_success_msgbox to disable_success_msgbox, and make it
always reset the option to 0, regardless of the previous value.

It will grab at the first fragment of the cache entry and try to detect the
content-type by looking for valid HTML. It is very stupid for now, simply
searching for "<html>", which may be bogus in certain circumstances. And I
am not sure if this is better left out and up to the scripting backends,
e.g. SMJS can now modify the cache entry.

Simplify do_move_bookmarks (from a readability perspective) by replacing
the destb and desti parameters with a new insert_as_child flag. Inspired

ELinks 0.12.GIT. This change is not required for fixing bug 760, but
the bookmark code in ELinks 0.12.GIT has been tested more with the

do_move_bookmark was only updating the selection in the bookmarks manager
window in which the Move button was pressed. Now all windows are updated.
This patch also prevents a crash when the first item that was displayed
in a box was the last child of a folder and was being moved (the comment
removed in this patch was incorrect in assuming that bm->box->next must
be valid because it neglected to account for non-root children).
This change required that I move the definition of struct
hierbox_dialog_list_item from src/bfu/hierbox.c to src/bfu/hierbox.h.
Thanks to Kalle Olavi Niemitalo for finding both the update problem
and the crash.

Old versions of add_string_to_string returned the target string
unmodified if from->source pointed to a null character, which usually
meant that the source string was empty. That was changed in commit
5e18576391f75ad84e04f9c8a30b93d08f0b92ab on 2004-11-03 so that
add_string_to_string instead returned NULL in that situation. The
change seems to have been inadvertent.
I'm now reverting that change and also making add_string_to_string
check the emptiness of the source string based on the stored length
only, rather than on any null characters. So the function can now
also be used with non-C strings containing embedded null characters.
Note that the previous version did not completely prevent embedded
null characters either, because it checked only the first character.

Previously, print_xml_entities did look up the charset, but did not

This fixes parse_ftp_number to use off_t instead of long to store its
(intermediate) result and return type. It also introduces an OFFT_MAX type
"limit" that is used for validating the size of the parsed number.
A test-case for was added in 37c9bf3f75 to
test-ftp-parser and the patch has been confirmed to fix the test-case by
adamg and me. This closes bug 899, which is a duplicate of debian bug
403139.
doc/remote.txt says there must be a nonempty sequence of ASCII
alphabetic characters before the opening parenthesis. Check that
they really are ASCII characters and that the sequence is nonempty.
Thus, elinks -remote '(foo)' now treats the string as an address,
rather than as a command.
Be more strict about the format accepted by the ELinks specific extension
to the -remote URL syntax. That is, commands must begin with a nonempty
sequence of ASCII alphabetic characters followed by optional whitespace and
an opening parenthesis. Also, document the syntax.
Fixes bug 830.
If ECMAScript code does obj[42], then the getProperty or setProperty
function of the JSClass of obj gets 42 as the property ID and must not
treat that as an internal error.
(Adapted from 7894e30ace in ELinks 0.12.GIT.)
The getProperty and setProperty functions of a JSClass must not assume
that the obj parameter points to an instance of that class. It might
instead point to another object that merely has an instance of the
class in its prototype chain. Thus, do not assert that JS_InstanceOf
returns true there. Instead, run the check even with CONFIG_FASTMEM,
and just return JS_FALSE if it fails.

This patch modifies ELinks wrapping behavior slightly.
* The wrap command now toggles line wrapping in HTML mode, as well as
text mode. Note that when the HTML view of a page is wrapped, its
source view is unwrapped, and vice versa.
* Tabs in text-mode lines are now handled correctly.
* Wrapping a line that reaches exactly to the edge of the screen will
no longer produce a blank line in text mode.
* Text within extra-wide table cells is now wrapped to less than the
screen width, to eliminate sideways scrolling.
The last point is only enabled by setting TABLE_LINE_PADDING to a
non-negative number, in the src/setup.h header file, because it is a
significant change of behavior from previous versions.
Introduce the macros before_widgets and foreach_widget_back. Use the
latter in update_all_widgets instead of foreach_widget so that the
widgets are printed in reverse order, which means that any listbox is
drawn last, which allows it to grab the cursor from the selected button
when the dialogue box is initialised or redrawn.

This ensures that the 'writer' process will remove itself when the
main ELinks process for some reason decides to shutdown the connection.
Before the 'writer' process would complete it's task taking up unnecessary
system resources.
This is mostly an issue when fetching big files. Therefore only file
fetching is fixed. FIXME added about also checking return codes for write
