Hi,
With all the recent activity on 1.6, 1.5 was a little bit left behind.
For the last 4 months, a few fixes have accumulated there, including
the annoying one striking again on http-send-name-header. Another one
may cause the old process to die during a soft reload when a proxy
references a disabled peers section. The next annoying one affects
those who set memory limits to their processes, as the memory size
computation was accidently performed on 32-bits which is limited by
todays standards (4GB max) so a typical 5 GB allocation would result
in 1 GB only due to integer overflow. The remaining patches are for
minor bugs, cleanups and doc updates.
For the vast majority of users there's no emergency to update. However
if you're deploying now, please consider using this version in order to
avoid these bugs later.
