Main changes since 4.1.2:
Full virtual robot support ; you can now create 2 lists with the same name in
different virtual robots
Message topics : list messages can be tagged with topics. List owner defines
a set of topics for the list. List members can select topics and only
receive related messages.
Sympa is now VERP enabled
new return_path_suffix parameter in sympa.conf
new 'digest_max_size' list parameter. If a digest exceeds this limit, then
multiple messages are sent.
New set of web templates, CSS and XHTML compatible.
RSS channels are providing the following features :
* latest messages in list archives
* latest documents in web repository
* latest created mailing lists
* most active mailing lists
Also, lots of other small features, translations and bug fixes.

pkgsrc changes include:
Use BUILD_TARGET=oshall as request in PR.
And make it work with PKGMANDIR.
CHANGES file includes:
Changes that improve compatibility w/ the Sixth Edition Unix shell
are marked w/ a `C:' in the details below.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20070324]:
osh.c:
* In main(), changed when fdfree() is called so that it is in a more
ideal sequence with other operations according to how the shell is
invoked (e.g., interactive shell vs. non-interactive shell).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20070321]:
* Imported the project into a local subversion repository.
* Changed the all of the code to "#include <stdbool.h>" and to use
the "bool" data-type macro where appropriate.
Makefile:
* Added SYSCONFDIR and a new `man' target.
osh.c:
* Defined _PATH_SYSTEM_LOGIN as `SYSCONFDIR/**/"/osh.login"' instead
of "/etc/osh.login" so that the user can use SYSCONFDIR (/etc by
default) at build-time to specify the directory where the shell
shall search for its system-wide initialization file.
* Added a new special parameter, $v, which makes the version of the
osh package available as a read-only string. The format is
`osh-YYYYMMDD' for official releases and `osh-current (YYYYMMDD)'
(interpreted as one word) for development snapshots.
* Fixed a bug where interactive shells were no longer ignoring SIGTERM
when invoked, as they are supposed to. Now, SIGTERM is being ignored
again upon invocation of all interactive shells.
* Fixed the output from doing a `sigign' so that it matches its
documentation in osh.1: "..., a list is printed of those signals
which are ignored by sigign in the current shell."
Previously, the output from a `sigign' could be a little confusing.
Now, its output only indicates those cases where a given signal is
being ignored w/ the possibility that it can then be unignored
(reset) in the current shell context.
if.c:
* Added 3 new primaries: -ef (equal files - same device, same inode),
-nt (newer than), -ot (older than). See the if(1) manual page for
full details.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20070131]:
osh.1:
* Made a few minimal changes to synchronize the manual w/ the code.
osh.c 1.2 (jneitzel) 2007/01/14:
* Changed the `chdir: No old directory' diagnostic to
`chdir: No previous directory' to match the manual.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[osh-20061230]:
The following files have been removed in this release:
examples/*: These files are now available at:
http://jneitzel.sdf1.org/osh/initialization_files/
tests/*: ... until I have a chance to rewrite them ...
*.1:
* Changed all instances of `UNIX' to `Unix' since the name
of the Unix operating system is not an acronym.
pexec.c:
* Fixed a possible, but very unlikely, memory leak.
osh.c:
C: Rewrote the shell! It is now a combination of the ports of the
original source code from sh6.c and glob6.c (see CHANGES_sh-to-sh6)
w/ the prior enhancements which were found in osh-060124/osh*.[ch] .
fd2.c:
* Removed the call to lseek(2) to end-of-file for errors.
The shell determines when this is necessary.
* Changed the `: no shell' diagnostic to `: No shell!'
in the spirit of sh6(1).
goto.c:
* Fixed a bug which interfered w/ finding a requested label when
its first character had the high-order bit set. The value of the
first character is now passed to getlabel() as an unsigned char
converted to an int to allow correct comparison in such a case.
if.c:
* Removed the call to lseek(2) to end-of-file for errors.
The shell determines when this is necessary.
* Changed the method used to build the argument list for all commands
executed by this utility, and removed the `Too many args' diagnostic.
The maximum length of the argument list for a command is now limited
only by the maximum length that the invoker can pass and by any
system-imposed limit for execve(2) (see E2BIG in errno(2)).
* Changed the `: no shell' diagnostic to `: No shell!'
in the spirit of sh6(1).
* Changed the diagnostic used for `!', `-a', `-o', and `(' operator
errors from `: argument expected' to `: expression expected'.
