No final release today. The disk in my virtual Windows machine broke.
Fixing that took up time that should have been used for testing, so
you will only get some completely untested builds.

Pike 8.0.222 release candidate:

Changes since Pike 8.0.182 (release 2)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

New features
------------

o Roxen.http_decode_string() now decodes UTF-16 surrogate pairs.

o Protocols.HTTP.Query now always sends a content-length header.

o Report feature flags for System.FSEvents and System.Inotify.


Bug fixes
---------

o The machine code generator on ia32 now aligns the stack
  on a 16 byte boundary. This makes it possible to call
  code that uses SSE2 instructions.

o Exceptions thrown in GTK signal handlers no longer cause
  segfaults.

o The SSL client code now interprets the RFCs more leniently.

o Multiple fixes for the handling of accelerated
  Filesystem.Monitor monitors, which could sometimes
  lose notifications.

o Improved handling of response content-length in Protocols.HTTP.Query.

o Fixed case where unfinished programs could lose their parents.

o Fixed "Invalid service"-error from connect() on Fedora Core 4.

o Fixed next_result() in Sql.sql_array_result.

o Fixed sizeof() in Array.Iterator, Multiset.Iterator and
  String.Iterator.


Building and installing
-----------------------

o Multiple fixes for building on Solaris.

o Improved scanning for Odbc header files.

o Fixed some issues with --with-abi flags not propagating
  correctly to the modules.
