Documented the new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output). + * Applied Alec Wolman 's dropsbr.c patch: + + In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this + call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1, + depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In + mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by + calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen + was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open + doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was + lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in + the prototype, but never sets it. + + My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I + checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of + map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear" + variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling + fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear" + being used later in the routine was just stack garbage. + + Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be + triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen, + but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed. + In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file + descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder. + Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
