2.3_git is a bit misleading, this is what will be 2.*4* - it was forked off 2.3.0, and after that, 2.3.x only got bugfixes and "long term compatibility / stability" changes, while git master = 2.3_git got the big new features. This one in particular sounds harmless but the actual code change is fairly invasive so we decided that it does not belong into 2.3.x (the client side improvements, like IV_SSL_VERSION or whatever it's called, went into 2.3.x :-)). gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany g...@greenie.muc.de fax: +49-89-35655025 g...@net.informatik.tu-muenchen.de
