+
+ * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
+ patch:
+
+ It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
+ iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
+ to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
+ part of the program's name.
+
+ This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
+ mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
+ to quote.

+
+ * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
+ format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
+ format characters with an empty item at the end. A
+ single-character format would cause programs using this
+ function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
+ the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
+ when the format string was one character. This eventually
+ caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
+ in the array.

+
+ * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
+ Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
+ nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
+ back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
+ can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
+ "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
+
+ I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
+ ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
+ mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
+ to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
+ ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
+ versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
+ <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
+ are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
+
+ I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
+ based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
+ and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
+ loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
+ HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
+ tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
+ doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
+ some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
+ MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
+ and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.

+
+ * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
+ fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
+
+ Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
+ while attempting to process some MIME messages:
+
+ (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
+ exit 2
+
+ and:
+
+ (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
+
+ (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
+ mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
+ mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
+ mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
+
+ Resolving the pointer reference issue in
+ mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
+ problem in the routine.

+
+ * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
+ prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
+
+ Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
+ core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
+ I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
+ spool somehow.

* wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
* Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
- the -help output. I guess the idea was to make reference to the
- fact that clearly you know about the -help option since you're
- currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea to
- overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
+ the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
+ to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
+ you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
+ to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
- allowed to specify. It doesn't make sense to show that you're
- allowed to "abbreviate" the switch to its entire length.
+ allowed to specify.
+
+ The other theory is that because you can say something like
+ "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
+ by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
+ you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
+ "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.

would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".

* Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
* Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
