+ngIRCd 21.1 (2014-03-25)
+
+ - Don't ignore but use the server password when PAM is compiled in but
+ disabled. Thanks to Roy Sindre Norangshol <roy.sindre@norangshol.no>!
+ - doc/Platforms.txt: Update from master branch.
+ - Really kill connections that send "spoofed prefixes" on non-server links.
+ This fixes commit 6cbe1308 which only killed the connection when the
+ spoofed prefix itself belonged to a non-server client.
+ - CHARCONV command: Fix handling conversion errors, don't overwrite already
+ converted text!
+ - doc/Services.txt: Update information for Anope 2.x.
+ - Correctly use cloaked IRC masks on "INVITE nickname": The cloaked IRC mask
+ of a user is his visible mask, so the daemon has to use it for generating
+ the "one time" entries for the invite list of the given channel, and not
+ the "real" mask which will never match while the target client is "+x", and
+ even worse, will disclose the real mask on "MODE #channel +I" commands :-/
+ Bug reported by Cahata on #ngircd, thanks!
+ - configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists. This isn't the case on
+ "VPATH builds", for example.
+ - Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's and test for
+ "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure".
+ - Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers (problems spotted on
+ OpenBSD): add missing #include's and static variables, and add libwrap at
+ the end of the configure run because if libwrap becomes added earlier,
+ other tests may fail.
+ - configure: add support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables to add
+ linker flags and libraries at the end of the configure run (CFLAGS_END has
+ been implemented already).
+ - platformtest.sh and Makefile.am: Don't use "test -e", it isn't portable.
+ - Update Copyright notices for 2014 :-)
+ - Fix permanent {G|K}LINES (with a timeout of 0 seconds).
+ - WEBIRC: Don't set the hostname received by the WEBIRC command when DNS
+ lookups are disabled, but use the IP address instead.
+ Reported by Toni Spets <toni.spets@iki.fi>, thanks!
+ - Check for working getaddrinfo() function: At least AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 have a
+ broken implementation of getaddrinfo() which doesn't handle "0" as numeric
+ service correctly. This patch adds a configure check for this case and
+ changes all calling functions to only use getaddrinfo() if it "works".
+ See <http://www.stacken.kth.se/lists/heimdal-discuss/2004-05/msg00059.html>
+ - Only use the unsetenv() function when it is available (AIX 4.3 doesn't
+ support it, for example).
+ - Make sure that the source code is still compatible with the "ansi2knr" tool
+ and builds using non-ANSI K&R C compilers. Tested with Apple C on A/UX.
+ - Fix building ngIRCd without support for ZLIB compression. Reported by
+ "der_baer" on #ngircd, thanks!
+

random salt will be generated after each server restart. (Closes #133)
