This release fixes security issue CVE-2007-0157, thanks to Laszlo 
Boszormenyi: an array index error in the URI parser in neon versions 
0.26.0 to 0.26.2, possibly only on 64-bit platforms, allows remote 
malicious servers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a URI with 
non-ASCII characters, which triggers a buffer under-read due to a type 
conversion error that generates a negative index.
