These are the files needed to build VMS distribution packages known as
PCSI kits.
Also minor update to the existing files, mainly to the documentation and
file clean up code.
This is the first version of this new document, detailing the seven
perhaps most important internal structs in libcurl source code:
1.1 SessionHandle
1.2 connectdata
1.3 Curl_multi
1.4 Curl_handler
1.5 conncache
1.6 Curl_share
1.7 CookieInfo
This is a regression as this logic used to work. It isn't clear when it
broke, but I'm assuming in 7.28.0 when we went all-multi internally.
This likely never worked with the multi interface. As the failed
connection is detected once the multi state has reached DO_MORE, the
Curl_do_more() function was now expanded somewhat so that the
ftp_do_more() function can request to go "back" to the previous state
when it makes another attempt - using PASV.
Added test case 1233 to verify this fix. It has the little issue that it
assumes no service is listening/accepting connections on port 1...

For some reason, OS X 10.5's GCC suddenly stopped working correctly with
macros that change MD5_Init etc. in the code to CC_MD5_Init etc., so I
worked around this by removing use of the macros and inserting static
functions that just call CommonCrypto's implementations of the functions
instead.
This changes the previous check for untrusted certs to a check for
certs explicitely marked as trusted.
The change is backward-compatible (tested with certdata.txt v1.80).
The internal function that's used to detect known file extensions for
the default Content-Type got the the wrong pointer passed in when
CURLFORM_BUFFER + CURLFORM_BUFFERPTR were used. This had the effect that
strlen() would be used which could lead to an out-of-bounds read (and
thus segfault). In most cases it would only lead to it not finding or
using the correct default content-type.
It also showed that test 554 and test 587 were testing for the
previous/wrong behavior and now they're updated as well.

Christian Heimes brought to our attention that the certdata.txt
format has recently changed [1], causing ca-bundle.crt created
with mk-ca-bundle.[pl|vbs] to include untrusted certs.

Instead of claiming it is an error, we call it a "note" to reduce the
severity level. But the following text now says the [variable] "*should*
only be used to specify"... instead of previously having said "may".
The motivation for having a separate struct that keep track of an easy
handle when using the multi handle was removed when we switched to
always using the multi interface internally. Now they were just two
separate struct that was always allocated for each easy handle.
This first step just moves the Curl_one_easy struct members into the
SessionHandle struct and hides this somehow (== keeps the source code
changes to a minimum) by defining Curl_one_easy to SessionHandle
The biggest changes in this commit are:
1 - the linked list of easy handles had to be changed somewhat due
to the new struct layout. This made the main linked list pointer
get renamed to 'easyp' and there's also a new pointer to the last
node, called easylp. It is no longer circular but ends with ->next
pointing to NULL. New nodes are still added last.
2 - easy->state is now called easy->mstate to avoid name collision
Update the packages/vms/readme file to be current.
Also some files for the GNV based build were either missing or needed an
update.
curl_crtl_init.c is a special file that is run before main() to
set up the proper C runtime behavior.
generate_vax_transfer.com generates the VAX transfer vector modules from
the gnv_libcurl_symbols.opt file.
gnv_conftest.c_first is a helper file needed for configure scripts to
come up with the expected answers on VMS.
gnv_libcurl_symbols.opt is the public symbols for the libcurl shared
image.
gnv_link_curl.com builds the shared libcurl image and rebuilds other
programs to use it.
macro32_exactcase.patch is a hack to make a local copy of the VMS Macro32
assembler case sensitive, which is needed to build the VAX transfer modules.
report_openssl_version.c is a tool for help verify that the libcurl
shared image is being built for a minium version of openssl.
Also, use memset() instead of a lame loop.
The previous logic that tried to avoid too many updates were very
ineffective for really fast transfers, as then it could easily end up
doing hundreds of updates per second that would make a significant
impact in transfer performance!

(This doesn't need to appear in the release notes.) I noticed a few places
where infof() was called, and there should've been an LF at the end of the
string, but there wasn't.
It turns out Snow Leopard not only has SecItemCopyMatching() defined in
a header not included by the omnibus header, but it won't work for our
purposes, because searching for SecIdentityRef objects wasn't added
to that API until Lion. So we now use the old SecKeychainSearch API
instead if the user is building under, or running under, Snow Leopard.

Previously we used __MAC_10_X and __IPHONE_X to mark digest-generating
code that was specific to OS X and iOS. Now we use
__MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED and __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED
instead of those macros.

For the standard VMS text file formats, VMS needs to read the file to
get the actual file size.
For the standard VMS binary file formats, VMS needs a special format of
fopen() call so that it stops reading at the logical end of file instead
of at the end of the blocks allocated to the file.
I structured the patch this way as I was not sure about changing the
structures or parameters to the routines, but would prefer to only call
the stat() function once and pass the information to where the fopen()
call is made.

The code for CURLFORM_FILECONTENT had its check for duplicate options
wrong so that it would reject CURLFORM_PTRNAME if used in combination
with it (but not CURLFORM_COPYNAME)! The flags field used for this
purpose cannot be interpreted that broadly.
