lsh-0.9.6 is a work-in-progress release. Changes include:
* Improved behaviour of -z with no argument (see the docs)
* First step of utmp/wtmp support. This version logs to wtmp using
the logwtmp() function. I don't know if logwtmp() is a glibc:ism or
if it is available on other systems (but I'll start a compile on
Solaris before I go to bed). It doesn't yet update utmp, and it
doesn't perform any reverse dns lookups.
* The name resolution functions are replaced, and use getaddrinfo()
if that function is available. My system has getaddrinfo(), but no
IPv6, so testing on IPv6 systems could be interesting.
* I added functions io_listen_local and io_connect_local to deal with
AF_LOCAL sockets in a safe way (which is not entirely trivial).
These functions are not used for anything yet. And they will cause
a fatal failure whenever fchdir() fails in the situation below:
old_cd = open(".", ...);
...
fchdir(old_cd);
I don't know how to get around that, and changing the cwd seems
necessary, in order to make sure that the sockets are created in a
directory with the right permissions, with no symlink/race attacks.
