fail to build when this happens, and show an appropriate error.
The brave of heart can circumvect this. Defining ALLOW_MSVC6_WITHOUT_PSDK
in lib/config-win32.h, although absolutely discouraged and unsupported,
this will allow the die hard MSVC hacker to build in such a discouraged
environment.
The actually supported 'fix' is to install 'February 2003 Platform SDK'
a.k.a. 'Windows Server 2003 PSDK' which can be freely downloaded from
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2873666) which identified a problem which
made libcurl loop infinitely when given incorrect credentials when using HTTP
GSS negotiate authentication.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2870221) that libcurl returned an
incorrect return code from the internal trynextip() function which caused
him grief. This is a regression that was introduced in 7.19.1 and I find it
strange it hasn't hit us harder, but I won't persue into figuring out
exactly why.
SO_SNDBUF to CURL_WRITE_SIZE even if the SO_SNDBUF starts out larger. The
patch doesn't do a setsockopt if SO_SNDBUF is already greater than
CURL_WRITE_SIZE. This should help folks who have set up their computer with
large send buffers.
the define CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER which is even exposed in the public header
file to allow for users to fairly easy rebuild libcurl with a modified
limit. The rationale for a fixed limit is that libcurl is realloc()ing a
buffer to be able to put a full header into it, so that it can call the
header callback with the entire header, but that also risk getting it into
trouble if a server by mistake or willingly sends a header that is more or
less without an end. The limit is set to 100K.
saving received cookies with no given path, if the path in the request had a
query part. That is means a question mark (?) and characters on the right
side of that. I wrote test case 1105 and fixed this problem.
transfer.c for blocking. It is currently used only by SCP and SFTP protocols.
This enhancement resolves an issue with 100% CPU usage during SFTP upload,
reported by Vourhey.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2861587) identifying that libcurl used
the OpenSSL function X509_load_crl_file() wrongly and failed if it would
load a CRL file with more than one certificate within. This is now fixed.
powered libcurl in 7.19.6. If there was a X509v3 Subject Alternative Name
field in the certficate it had to match and so even if non-DNS and non-IP
entry was present it caused the verification to fail.
POLLIN, and sets POLLERR without setting POLLIN and POLLOUT. In some
libcurl code execution paths this could trigger busy wait loops with
high CPU usage until a timeout condition aborted the loop.
This fix for Curl_poll adresses the above in a libcurl-wide mode.
Some systems poll function sets POLLHUP in revents without setting
POLLIN, and sets POLLERR without setting POLLIN and POLLOUT. In some
libcurl code execution paths this could trigger busy wait loops with
high CPU usage until a timeout condition aborted the loop.
The reverted patch addressed the above issue for a very specific case,
when awaiting c-ares to resolve. A libcurl-wide fix superceeds this one.

start second "Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT 1970" as the date parser then returns 0
which internally then is treated as a session cookie. That particular date
is now made to get the value of 1.
